The Blockchain Technology Conference has just begun but we want to make sure you’re up-to-date with all the announcements and statements. Come get your piping hot takeaways and explore our notes in bite-sized pieces.
Can blockchain transform the world? Before we can answer this question, we need to understand what this technology can and can’t do, what it is and what it isn’t. Therefore, we have to go back to basics and explore the fundamentals in order to eliminate all misconceptions about blockchain. This series is meant to clear the air by answering the most fundamental questions.
You don’t need a train ticket to get to Berlin. We are livestreaming sessions from the Blockchain Technology Conference in Berlin so you can watch from home. Discover what international experts have to say and get a deeper understanding of cutting-edge technologies.

As more organizations look to adopt blockchain principles, is there a way they can do so by leveraging tech skills they already have? Blockchain Technology Conference speaker Ivaylo Kirilov explains how developers can utilize Ethereum with Java with web3j.
Our presence on the internet is in the form of data. Everything is just data. But who owns this data? How is this data stored? What happens to our data when we agree to “share” it? In this article, Rong Chen discusses the nature of decentralized web and how we can create it.
The Upwork Skills Index is here once again with the top 20 freelance skills companies have their eye on for the third quarter of 2018. Public cloud goes big but we see some major changes compared to the first two quarters of 2018. Let’s take a closer look.
Decentralized applications (also called “dApps”) are quickly growing in popularity, despite the frequent challenges that come with early-stage technologies. What is the current state of building dApps? Do dApps scale? Are they worthwhile to build? What are some common development considerations? Let’s evaluate the current maturity of this rapidly evolving ecosystem.
Constructing decentralized applications is one of blockchain’s most significant advantages. It does, however, come with a set of very unique challenges. In this article, Emil Wagner gives you some guidelines on how to deal with those challenges.
DApps built on blockchain infrastructure are designed to hand control of data back to the users. However, it’s important for developers to remember that blockchain has some additional pain points that must be considered. Uriel Peled explains why it’s important to choose a foundation that will enable the dApp to evolve and sums up the dos and don’ts of decentralized applications.
Unlearning can be just as important as learning. When it comes to blockchain, people often have just as many misconceptions as they do correct ideas. Getting started with the technology can be tough when you don’t know where to turn.
Hyperledger Fabric now supports Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) bytecode smart contracts. This popular blockchain framework is now more accessible to developers who have already started working with Ethereum and its associated tools. We talked to Christopher Ferris, IBM Distinguished Engineer about the implications of this step, what it means for Ethereum and blockchain developers & more.
OpenZeppelin 2.0 is here, and this framework will help reduce your vulnerabilities. What’s new in this release? If you’re new to the world of building smart contracts or a seasoned veteran, where should you go from here? Time to see what’s under the hood in this new release (while we try very hard not to make Led Zeppelin references).
How can we achieve a scalable blockchain-based supply chain solution without sacrificing security and efficiency? You’ll need a consensus algorithm that can quickly validate the transactions being made. In this article, Dr. Vlad Trifa explains why (and how!) a blockchain-based network designed to support global supply chains must be flexible, reliable, secure, and above all, scalable.
