Blockchain — Best Of

A hand-picked subset rather than a topic: the blockchain articles that hold up best as a starting point.

It includes the hardware wallet cryptography breakdowns, the fungible-token-across-chains study, the oracle build-it-yourself walkthrough, EIP deep dives such as EIP-6780, and the full RareSkills Solidity interview answer series from medium to advanced.

Zero Knowledge Proofs with Bulletproof

Zero Knowledge Proofs with Bulletproof

Bulletproofs are efficient and compact zero-knowledge proofs. They're enhancing privacy and scalability in blockchain systems by reducing data size and verification time.

Fungible Tokens across blockchains

Fungible Tokens across blockchains

Representation of fungible tokens in the various existing blockchains. On Ethereum, its largest representative is the ERC-20 standard.

EIP-6780, selfdestruct, we won't miss you

The Ethereum Dencun upgrade introduces the EIP-6780 which updates the opcode selfdestruct to deactivates the destruction of the contract, except if the contract is destructed in the same transaction as created.
