Title: Blockchain related education resources
Post by: nthere on August 12, 2018, 07:39:15 PM
Hi all,

As an electronic engineer (I didn't do my job in any time), I was really confused about how to learn the 'real' blockchain. Maybe learning some coding about it.
What I mean by real is the technology which is running under the hood. Not side stuffs like price discussions, scam projects, technical analysis etc. Mostly nothing related to cryptocurrencies world.
I am going to share useful resources which I recommend as an enthusiastic. Those are 'my bests' after some research and experience.

Video Courses
Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies | by Princeton University
This is good way to start and learn the basics in a good tempo.No need to rush at first.

Cryptography by | by Stanford University
This is not an easy course to understand but If you are nerdy enough, I am sure you can complete it :D
https://www.coursera.org/learn/crypto (https://www.coursera.org/learn/crypto)

Blockchain Fundamentals
I did not complete it yet but it's another good resource that if you want to learn thoroughly.

Ethereum and Solidity: The Complete Developer's Guide
This is one of the best. It is like a complete guide for most of us. Maybe more than we need.

I did not try this site yet but looks promising.

Links
Nice, well-explained articles, blogs etc.
Just grab your coffee and enjoy learning new things.

Fantastic.
You've really done a good job to post this research and I belief it will go a long way in educating a newbie about what Blockchain technology is all about.

I can say this because I have done the two courses from Pristine and Stamford University.

I started the one from Stanford and although the theory in the videos is quite easy to follow, the practice in the exercises is quite difficult if you don't have programming skills. Anyway, it's quite complete and a really good one (and the best of all is that it is free).

Let's share here some other good courses we know so everyone benefits from the experience of the other members.

Wow. Those are some really beneficial documents. I also have some other educational resources. Let me check my documents and I will write back here in this thread. We can make a collection of useful educational stuff here.

Btw, I can recommend the following two books;

Blockchain Basics - Daniel Drescher

The Bitcoin Standard - Saifedean Ammous

Nice links about blockchain development, thanks for sharing.

Do you have more information about different proofs? (https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@killjoy/the-different-proofs-of-crypto-currency)

There are many ideas should put the blockchain technology to teach in the university, young people should know blockchain, which is the potential human resources for the developed country.

'Become a Blockchain Expert' course is by far the best blockchain course ever made.

The course is for beginners who are trying to understand the fundamentals of blockchain technology, and covers everything necessary to turn people into confident blockchain experts. The early reviews are great and the course is rich with video, additional resources and interactive activities. I think you’ll get a lot out of it.

Get it here at 95% off:
https://www.udemy.com/become-a-blockchain-expert-course-i-beginner-level/?couponCode=BITCOINTALK95OFF

There are a limited number of coupons and also there is a deadline. Once these are gone, the price for the course will increase back up to its original state.

Also, don’t forget to check out our official website for more information:

Good luck!
