About the Course
The sudden rise in the value of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, and its subsequent decline, focused the world’s attention on cryptocurrencies as a means of payment. Blockchain technology powers Bitcoin and has been hyped as the next new, transformative technology.
In this course, we first discuss the technical underpinnings of blockchain and review key concepts such as decentralization and consensus algorithms.
We then examine blockchain as an asset and review the dynamics of the cryptocurrency markets.
Finally, we examine blockchain as a business solution, with a focus on understanding business cases in which blockchain does and does not make sense.

I very excited about the first and second courses. The lecturer is very smart. The deep knowledge and professional representation catches you and keeps on track through the course.

The information is really valuable. The authors should review some of the sound in the last week, though. I really appreciate the conceptual maps the authors worked on, very useful!

This course is extremely useless and confusing. I learnt absolutely nothing from this and was not even able to pass the exams after 10 attempts
