Blockchain is a fundamental innovation in the field of financial technology (Fintech). As the core technology of a new generation of distributed ledger technology (DLT) system, blockchain is considered to have broad application prospects in many fields such as finance, Internet of Things, commercial trade, credit reporting, and asset management. At present, blockchain technology is still in a stage of rapid development, involving distributed systems, cryptography, game theory, network protocols, and many other disciplines, which bring challenges to both learning and practice. This book hopes to objectively explore the ins and outs of the blockchain concept, analyze key technologies and principles, and use the world's largest open-source distributed ledger project, Hyperledger, as an example to explain specific applications. In the process of developing the Hyperledger project and designing solutions for enterprises, the author has accumulated some practical experience.
