Blockchain at IU’s IBM Hyperledger Event by the Kelley School of Business
What a time to be in Indiana! It is snowing and the campus is looking beautiful. The great news is the Blockchain at IU Club is having an event to go over IBM’s HyperLedger. For anyone interested in the Blockchain this would be a great chance to meet the club’s team and a great chance to learn the fundamentals of the blockchain.
Join the Kelley School of Business in this large event!
The Hyperledger is an umbrella project of open source blockchains and related tools, started in December 2015 by the Linux Foundation and supported by big industry players like IBM, Intel, and SAP to support the collaborative development of blockchain-based distributed ledgers.
For people new to the blockchain, Blockchain, is a growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. By design, a blockchain is resistant to modification of the data.
Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency, a form of electronic cash. It is a decentralized digital currency without a central bank or single administrator that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer bitcoin network without the need for intermediaries.
Remember to wear a coat if you are going to come! Stay warm and enjoy the hot drinks at the event.
