Basics of Blockchain – Self Paced

Unlock the potential of Blockchain Technology with our Basics of Blockchain Course, designed for beginners and professionals who want to explore the future of decentralized systems, cryptocurrencies, and Web3 applications.

This course starts with the foundations of blockchain, covering peer-to-peer architecture, trust models, and the evolution of blockchain technology. You’ll gain a strong understanding of core cryptography and data structures, including public-key cryptography, hashing, Merkle trees, and digital signatures.

Next, dive into popular blockchain platforms like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Hyperledger, and EOS, where you’ll learn about mining, nodes, gas models, and account structures. Explore consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT/PBFT), while learning how they ensure trust and resilience.

The course also covers types of blockchains (public, private, consortium) and explores tokenomics, including ERC standards, stablecoins, CBDCs, ICOs, STOs, and the rise of DeFi platforms. You’ll also understand the role of wallets, centralized & decentralized exchanges, and their comparison to traditional finance systems.

Advanced modules introduce you to Web3 and DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), their protocols, governance structures, and ethical implications. You’ll study real-world case studies in finance, supply chain, healthcare, and digital identity, making you industry-ready.

By the end of this course, you’ll not only have mastered the fundamentals of blockchain but also gained practical insights into design patterns, scalability, privacy, and regulatory challenges. This program is a gateway to careers in Blockchain Development, DeFi, Web3, and Enterprise Blockchain Solutions.
