Blockchain Development Online Course

Blockchain disrupts many different aspects of our life including finance, retail, merchandising, identity, and more. Ethereum is a platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud, or third-party interference. 

This course will help you learn the basics of building decentralized applications with the Ethereum network. You will also learn how to create smart contracts, implement business logic using Solidity, and test your code. 

By the end of this course, you’ll have the skills necessary to build, test, and deploy applications in the Ethereum network.
