Preface

Bitcoin, upon its inception in 2008, took the financial world by storm. It became the first alternative to the debt-based paper currency. Bitcoin is powered by the underlying technology that shocked the technology world. The core technology was named Blockchain - immutable proof of records linked together in a chain and distributed across every peer in the world.

This simple yet powerful concept opens a new branch in the computing world. Blockchain is being conceptualized to be used in sectors like supply chain, medical records, and land records.

I ventured into blockchain and cryptocurrency in early 2015. To learn more about it, I joined one of Indias largest crypto exchanges and helped them build and scale their infrastructure. I gained treasure knowledge while working on the exchange.

One of the branches of Blockchain is the decentralized application. This is the new set of applications that offer alternatives to the traditional client/server model of web development. Using this approach, developers can build next-generation applications with the core blockchain technology.

Decentralized applications are slowly venturing into the real-world applications, and this was my motivation to author this bookto provide in-depth information and knowledge about Blockchain and decentralized application to the readers.

Chapter discusses blockchain and explains the core technologies that power the blockchain. We will also learn about Bitcoin and how it works in depth.

Chapter looks at the Ethereum and smart contracts in detail. The smart contract is the turing complete programming language to build the application that can be executed on the Ethereum blockchain.

Chapter helps you learn about interplanetary file systems and how to use them to build decentralized applications. IPFS is the ground breaking technology to build next-generation blockchain applications.

Chapter introduces the first decentralized database of this bookOrbitDB. It is a serverless peer-to-peer decentralized database software that runs on top of IPFS. OrbitDB provides easy-to-use APIs to help developers integrate and build applications.

Chapter discusses the BigchainDBa blockchain based database. BigchainDB is an asset-focused database that provides all the blockchain features, along with modern database capabilities such as indexing, querying, and processing.
