Blockchain


Wiki: A blockchain is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography

Note: It is NOT secure neither a real blockchain and you should NOT use this for anything else than educational purposes.

Features:

==> Blockchain Client

* Wallet generation using public key cryptography

* Can create a new transaction & submit it to network

==> Blockchain Network

* Transactions with RSA encryption

* Coin mining

* Proof of work(Hash algo: sha256)

* Coin incentive

* Node resolve conflict

Install:

pip install blockchainpy

Examples:

Create wallet

==> It's a key-pair of privat_key & address. Address is public address to recieve coin. Private-key is use to send coins to some address.

In [1]: from blockchain.client import create_wallet

In [2]: alice_wallet = create_wallet()

In [3]: bob_wallet = create_wallet()

In [4]: print alice_wallet

Check balance

==> Amount of coins that particular address have.

In [5]: from blockchain.network import check_balance

In [7]: print check_balance(bob_wallet['address'])

Genesis block/transaction

==> A genesis block is the first block of a block chain. The genesis block is almost always hardcoded into the software of the applications that utilize its block chain. It is a special case in that it does not reference a previous block.
==> In our case, Genesis transaction will send 50 coin to given address.\

Mining

==> One of the miner will pick the transaction & add it block if it is valid. In our case, we will have to manually submit the transaction to the network.
==> To mine a block, miners need to find an extremely rare solution to a cryptographic puzzle. If a mined block is accepted by the blockchain, the miner receive a reward in coins which is an additional incentive to transaction fees.
==> The mining process is also referred to as Proof of Work (PoW), and it's the main mechanism that enables the blockchain to be trustless and secure.\

Updated wallet balaces

In [20]: print check_balance(alice_wallet['address'])
40

In [21]: print check_balance(bob_wallet['address'])
10

ToDo:

* Balance verification should be done in mining step. Right now, it's in new-transaction method
* Balance should get update after mining step.
