具体描述

Arvind Narayanan, Joseph Bonneau, Edward Felten, Andrew Miller, Steven Goldfeder, Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies, Princeton: Princeton University Press (forthcoming), 2016. This textbook closely follows the video lectures in the course. The official and professionally done version of the book will be out this summer.

Introduction to the book

There’s a lot of excitement about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Optimists claim that Bitcoin will

fundamentally alter payments, economics, and even politics around the world. Pessimists claim

Bitcoin is inherently broken and will suffer an inevitable and spectacular collapse.

Underlying these differing views is significant confusion about what Bitcoin is and how it works. We

wrote this book to help cut through the hype and get to the core of what makes Bitcoin unique.

To really understand what is special about Bitcoin, we need to understand how it works at a technical

level. Bitcoin truly is a new technology and we can only get so far by explaining it through simple

analogies to past technologies.

We’ll assume that you have a basic understanding of computer science — how computers work, data

structures and algorithms, and some programming experience. If you’re an undergraduate or

graduate student of computer science, a software developer, an entrepreneur, or a technology

hobbyist, this textbook is for you.

In this book we’ll address the important questions about Bitcoin. How does Bitcoin work? What

makes it different? How secure are your bitcoins? How anonymous are Bitcoin users? What

applications can we build using Bitcoin as a platform? Can cryptocurrencies be regulated? If we were

designing a new cryptocurrency today, what would we change? What might the future hold?

Each chapter has a series of homework questions to help you understand these questions at a deeper

level. In addition, there is a series of programming assignments in which you’ll implement various

components of Bitcoin in simplified models. If you’re an auditory learner, most of the material of this

book is also available as a series of video lectures. You can find all these on our Coursera course . You

should also supplement your learning with information you can find online including the Bitcoin wiki,

forums, and research papers, and by interacting with your peers and the Bitcoin community.

After reading this book, you’ll know everything you need to be able to separate fact from fiction when

reading claims about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. You’ll have the conceptual foundations you

need to engineer secure software that interacts with the Bitcoin network. And you’ll be able to

integrate ideas from Bitcoin into your own projects.

这篇比特币FAQ试图以FAQ的形式对比特币做一个简单的介绍。主要参考了比特币白皮书和普林斯顿大学的教材《区块链:技术驱动金融》,当然不可避免的包含了很多个人理解,欢迎探讨。 【2017-08-10初稿 / 2020-05-01小幅更新】 1.什么是比特币? 比特币是一种数字货币,它不依赖于...

这是我看过第一本关于区块链的书。由于有很多技术和数学词汇,读得有点吃力,但是满满的干货,对区块链以及数字货币,有了一个初步的认识。 感觉区块链,尤其是其中关于去中心化的思想,对我们的影响将不只是在货币金融层面,区块链为去中心化提供了技术的手段,使这种思想有了...

1,区块链技术是自复式记账法被发明以来,人类社会记账方法的第一次革命性改进。 从密码朋克到比特币,这是一个典型的“沙堆效应”,也就是我党常说的“星星之火,可以燎原”。从自身做起,影响自己能影响的少数人,如同一颗沙子落在一堆沙上,这样总有一天那堆沙会被这样类似...

配着普林斯顿的公开课一起看,我觉得超棒的

这本书太好读了,深入浅出,在办公室一口气翻完,耶

The BitCoin Pub/Priv Key System is Just a Cyclic SubGroup of Elliptic Curve Group over The Prime Finite Field.

评分

good introduction. a few chapter, e.g. transactions and hash pointers are a bit confusing and could have been better written.

评分

反正作为对这块完全不懂的人,这本书讲的还是挺不错的,该懂的都懂了。复杂的部分一知半解也就过了。比特币最牛的就是它的去中心化,看看它怎么撬动这个世界吧。
