A blockchain proof of concept project based on the tutorial by kass to learn to create a simple blockchain system.
This project walks through creating a simple blockchain and implementing a basic proof of work system in Java. It consists of the following components:
- Blockchain: Implements a chain of blocks, each containing data and a hash reference to the previous block.
- Transactions: Includes functionality for creating and managing transactions, storing inputs and outputs.
- Proof of Work (Mining): Introduces a mining mechanism for block validation via computational work.
The workspace contains two folders by default, where:
src
: the folder to maintain sourceslib
: the folder to maintain dependencies
Meanwhile, the compiled output files will be generated in the bin
folder by default.
