Course description:

 

Step by step this course explains how to analyze, trade and build your own Blockchain tokens. No programming experience is required. 70% of this workshop is gathering and researching Crypto data and 30% is programming for those who want to build their own Blockchain solutions. This helps you to build your way into Crypto investments. We will start from the basics of Blockchain and gradually build up your knowledge to create your own Ethereum token and trading strategies.

 

Using simple games and real life analogies, we explain how Blockchain is constructed and why it cannot be altered as time passes. Also we will build our own tools to automate the process of gathering and analyzing Crypto contracts and historical data.

 

We will examine and test a couple of Crypto trading strategies, using real world testing networks. Using Python and Solidity, we will build our own crypto data analytics and investment solutions. Even if you have no previous coding experience, our experienced instructors will guide you step by step so by the end of this workshop you would have your own Blockchain program.   

 

Each session is followed by 30 minutes free debugging support, for those who would be building their own Blockchain solutions.

 

Who should take this course:

 

Anybody interested in Blockchain technology and Cryptocurrencies. No previous programming or technical knowledge is required. Crypto investors and traders would benefit by understanding the fundamentals and techniques of Blockchain technology. Entrepreneurs and developers who are interested in launching their own contracts or Crypto tokens.

——————————————————————————————————————————–

Developing smart contract for a token sale, including

ICO Launch , Stages covered and Block Explorer with Hash # , Referral features

Stacking , Lending and ICO complete development

Backend design:

Admin Dashboard and Signup, Complete Transaction ledger,Status reports.

Responsive design to fit mobiles and tablets

Regular API and wallet considerations

Deposit Money in BTC , ETH (BitGo)

Blockchain Development and easy distribution system for new tokens.

Prefer iCOs like Atlant.io. and hacken.io.

—————————————————————————————————————————–

Sample Program:

Simple contract written in solidity.

Contract should have 1 token which can not be splitted to less than 1.

Initial “token cost” is 0.001 ETH

If wallet1 sends 0.001 ETH to the contract, the token is sent to wallet1.

Than the price doubles to 0.002

If wallet2 sends 0.002 to the contract, the token is moved from wallet1 to wallet 2, and 0.002 is paid from the contract to wallet2.

And so on and so forth.

If wallet3 sends 0.004 to the contract, the token is moved to wallet3 and 0.004 Ether is paid to wallet2

————————————————————————————————————–

 

Setup a full ethereum node on a linux server.

Provide an API with the following functions:

1- Pull data via API

Input: smart contract address

Output: all transaction on this contract: TxHash Block Age From To Value [TxFee]

And token transfer:

TxHash Age From To Value Token

Example: [url removed, login to view]

2- Push

For a specific list of contract addresses, whenever a new transaction is detected, push the data to a specific address.

TxHash, Block, Age, From, To, Value, [TxFee],

ethereum network and “solidity” code.

RPC – Remote Procedure Call – is a particular type of communication, but can be on a single machine, or across a network between machines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_procedure_call

IPC – Inter-Process Communication – is a general term for communication between different processes (which are usually on a single machine). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-process_communication
