Description
The old economy is fading fast while the crypto-currency universe is expanding rapidly with no end in sight. You will learn valuable new skills to ensure you don't get left behind in this exciting new space.
In this course, you will acquire some practical blockchain powers so you can improve your value as an entrepreneur, employee, job seeker or for whatever project you have in mind. It's our hope that you will do good in the world with this new knowledge.
David Blackmore is a seasoned educator and technologist who will walk you through the steps of setting up your account right through to issuing your first token and ICO crowd-sale on the Ethereum network using a single smart contract and MyEtherWallet.
The token will be a standard ERC20, it will have the main functions and can be used as a general base for more sophisticated applications than just transferring them. The ICO crowd-sale contract will enable you to set the amount per ETH and your total token supply. You will be able to create a time line bonus for your pre-sale, automatically calculate and send tokens to purchasers during your ICO. Many successful ICO's have extremely similar contracts.
There are a few different components you will need as you are guided toward building your own token.
Ethereum Address on the Ropsten Network
Some test Ethereum which we'll get from a faucet
A text editor like (I.e. Sublime / Atom) which are free to download
Solidity contract which we will provide from our Github
Attachments with all the links are provided and David will take you through detailed screencasts, launching his own contracts along with you so you experience as you see the entire process.
