1. Blockchain Architecture
How blockchains work
A blockchain is a distributed ledger that records transactions across many computers. Understanding its architecture is fundamental to blockchain development.
🧱 Core Components
Blocks
Container of transactions with timestamp, hash, and previous hash
Chain
Linked blocks creating immutable history via cryptographic hashes
Nodes
Computers that validate, store, and distribute blockchain data
Consensus
Agreement mechanism for adding new blocks (PoW, PoS, etc.)
🔐 Cryptographic Foundations
- SHA-256: Hashing algorithm for block integrity
- Public/Private Keys: Asymmetric cryptography for ownership
- Digital Signatures: Prove transaction authenticity
- Merkle Trees: Efficient data verification structure
2. Consensus Mechanisms
Agreeing on truth
3. State Management
Tracking blockchain data
4. Scalability Solutions
Making blockchains faster
5. Developer Tools
Building on blockchain
6. Building dApps
Decentralized applications
