内容摘要 以太坊打开了通向去中心化计算的大门,这个平台使你能够运行去中心化的应用程序(DApps)和智能合约,这些应用程序没有中心故障点或控制点,与支付网络集成,并在开放的区块链上运行。通过这本实用指南,Andreas M. Antonopoulos 和 Gavin Wood 向读者提供了在以太坊和其他基于虚拟机的区块链上构建智能合约和 DApps 所需的一切信息。本书既可以作为一本技术参考手册,也可供读者全面地了解以太坊。前两章主要是一个入门级的介绍,适合新手用户,这些章节中的示例可以由具有一定技术技能的读者完成。这两章将使你对以太坊基础知识有一个很好的掌握,并教会你使用以太坊的基本工具。第三章及以后的内容主要面向程序员,包括许多技术主题和编程示例。
