I agree that cryptocurrency lacks scaling in the real world, but so far it cannot be implemented. I think that it will take at least another 5 years.


It depends on how well companies that offer blockchain solutions can pander to those outside of the industry and give them a reason to use the technology, the more that happens the faster it will be.

Hello Can you tell me what is your rate? If you need moderator on Discord or Telegram you can also bump me up. Thanks.

I think you should give us rate, objective or something else so that everyone could give you an good offer

I've changed the topic to looking to find a business partner that can help me with this, however if you can gain me users in the community fast then I would be more than willing to discuss hiring you for this.

Did you read my answer ? I don't have the absolute truth but these journalist-marketing-like affirmations are not accurate.

I just noticed your answer darosior, yes you are right and your response is great helpful. I was just trying to help OP by referring to my own researches as i also keep asking about where to start learning how to code for blockchain. And afaik, c/c++ are mandatory to start programming for newbies as it for professionals, are guides and tutorials helpful to master such a complicated language? what do i also need to start learning c/c++ ?? I still think there is a difference gap between free courses and paied ones. The question stil remain the same; where to start?

You can go on Udemy for courses, there are so many great ones and it’s pretty much the only place I go for courses. Right now I’m taking a 40 hour course in c++ specifically for those with no experience in programming. They also have tons of blockchain programming courses. Also they are pretty much all on sale all the time for like $10.

In no way am I confused, by blockchain programming I mean I want to program a blockchain. I’m not asking what a blockchain is as I’ve known for a long while, I want to be able to build custom blockchain solutions. Meaning I want to be able to program and run a blockchain, block explorer, wallet, and cryptocurrency. With this I’m sure I could work on established networks as well and I plan to learn solidity for smart contract programming.


I believe your right, I will keep learning the basics and intermediates of c++ to learn how to program and it's fundamentals, from there I will focus on learning how to build blockchain applications and pick up which languages I need to learn and how to apply them along the way. And thanks for the crypto challenges, I will surely use those.

What Heretik suggested is not learning blockchain applications, but learning blockchain fundamentals that aren't programming language.  I made a thread a while ago : Books about bitcoin/blockchain

If you're not proficient in C++, learn using it. Program applications, ANY applications. Blockchain programming shouldn't be something you use to learn a language, you already need to have mastered the basics and you should be able to program anything using your chosen language. (Hence why a lot of people pick javascript in their github blockchain projects because it's "easy"..)

Once you control the language, you then spend time familiarising yourself with the blockchain technology. You understand cryptography, you understand elliptic curves, you understand the satoshi white paper, basically you get an idea about everything needed for you to code the blockchain FROM SCRATCH.

Of course if you actually follow this road, it's not going to be easy. The non-programming aspect of this shit is fckin hard, even for us coders. But believe me, anyone that didn't do this couldn't ever dream of adding anything new or ever coming up with something innovative. People who self-title themselves as "blockchain programmers" while they barely know the surface of the technology and can only clone projects like some github parrots, rather than be able to understand it so well they can contribute with their own ideas, those are no blockchain programmers in my eyes. You can always be one of those if you prefer, it's easy to keep using trial and error and code a shitload of clones until you "understand" how to code a bitcoin clone Smiley

I’ve been with the blockchain industry for a while and I actually disagree. You don’t need to be able to program blockchain solutions to be able to contribute innovation to the industry. Also I’m not going to completely master c++ or any programming language if I don’t need to, that takes years, and if I don’t need to to be able to build blockchain solutions from scratch then I’m not going to. I have the many many resources for help at my disposal to be able to build these solutions such as articles, specific guides, and forums such as this one and stackoverflow. So if I get stuck I don’t need to just rely on my knowledge with every mistake I’ll learn from it.

Honestly? If you want to attain the skills of working on your own cryptocurrency (or whatever else you want to build around a blockchain or distributed ledger) knowing your way around consensus algorithms, cryptographic standards and general application security is much more important than the question of which programming language too choose. Knowing c++ inside out won't prevent disaster if your security knowledge is lacking, especially in this field. And in the right hands even JavaScript can become an incredibly powerful tool.

In terms of getting started with programming I'd probably recommend JavaScript or Python, as both are relatively easy to get into, with JavaScript being ubiquitous to boot. Especially for anything web related (eg. block explorers) you won't get around using JavaScript (unless you fork an existing solution with little to no changes). While there are wallet clients that are written using JavaScript / Node.js, getting deep into the matter will likely nonetheless require solid c/c++ knowledge though (or Go or Rust if you feel especially fancy today).

But to repeat -- choosing the "right" programming language is secondary to having a firm grip on the theory. Also keep in mind that starting in one language won't keep you from specializing in another, so try not to overthink your starting point.


Here's some fun crypto related programming challenges to get you started, by the way. Regardless of which language you choose:

I am trying to get into blockchain programming from having no programming experience, right now I am slowly learning C++, once I feel a little comfortable with it I am going to start learning blockchain development from courses regardless of the languages they use (which shouldn't be a problem because learning C++ is to give me the knowledge of programming in general and to apply C++ as well). But I see all of these different githubs and courses that use javascript and javascript derived languages (node.js, react.js, etc), those that use c++, those that use python, those that use GO, and I am at a loss. What should I learn exactly? Do I need to know all of these languages for not too complex blockchain applications?

My plan was to just learn c++ and then start studying the blockchain programming while learning the syntax of other languages as I need them, but how can you make a blockchain, cryptocurrency, explorer, wallet, etc utilizing all of the languages above? Do I need to?
Hi,

I do think that learning C/C++ as the first language is the best way to start. By being able to read C++ you can read the whole bitcoin-core code which is, I think, what you mean by "blockchain programing".

But you are confused with the term "blockchain" : a block chain is a database and in most cases just a set of transactions, you won't "programm a blockchain" as you won't programm a MariaDB. However you can use datas from a MariaDB database, or from a block chain for an application or interact with it : here you can differenciate two things.

1) You want to know how Bitcoin (the network, defined by a protocol) works and C++ is the good way to go.
2) You want to make some mobile or web applications which would interact with the Bitcoin network (or another, like Ethereum or Stellar) and in order to do so a scripting language in more often used (mostly Javascript).

Theses two paths are not incompatible but it is easier (required ^^) to go from 1) 2) than from to 2) to 1).

To conclude I would recommend you to learn and practice C++, trying to learn some parts of bitcoin-core (the reference implementation of the Bitcoin protocol) and then to choose what you want to do. Check this thread it can helps you to start with Bitcoin.

In no way am I confused, by blockchain programming I mean I want to program a blockchain. I’m not asking what a blockchain is as I’ve known for a long while, I want to be able to build custom blockchain solutions. Meaning I want to be able to program and run a blockchain, block explorer, wallet, and cryptocurrency. With this I’m sure I could work on established networks as well and I plan to learn solidity for smart contract programming.

Are you looking for members in your discord channel? What's your offering for per 100 users? I would give it a try though I had not done it for a long time. PM me here and I will response ASAP.

Yes I am looking for members, and I haven't figured out a rate yet because I don't know what something like this should cost exactly, I believe it to be pretty cheap though.
