    Introduction to Block Chain

    COURSE OBJECTIVES:
    Blockchain is an emerging technology platform for developing decentralized applications and
    data storage. This course provides a broad overview of the essential concepts of blockchain
    technology – by initially exploring the Bitcoin protocol followed by the Ethereum protocol – to
    lay the foundation necessary for developing applications and programming.
