Creating A Blockchain In JavaScript

Blockchain is all the buzz now. And for good reason! A distributed public ledger that is extremely secure through encryption?! Imagine the millions of applicable use cases. A blockchain can be created and maintained using any modern language.

For the purpose of this blog, let’s dive into a blockchain written in JavaScript. Hopefully, this doesn’t just serve as a simple code example but also gives a very basic understanding of how a blockchain actually works.

Do keep in mind this will be very simplist…

Blockchain Implementation With Java Code

Bitcoin is hot — and what an understatement that is. While the future of cryptocurrency is somewhat uncertain, blockchain, the technology used to drive Bitcoin, is also very popular.

Blockchain has an almost endless application scope. It also, arguably, has the potential to disrupt enterprise automation. There is a lot of information available covering what and how blockchain works. We have a free whitepaper that goes into blockchain technology (no registration required).

This blog will focus on the blockchain architecture, particularly demonstrating how the “immutable, append-only” distributed ledger works with simplistic code examples.

As developers, seeing things in code can be much more useful in understanding how it works, than simply reading technical articles. At least that’s the case for me. Let’s get started.
