Introduction to Blockchain:

Blockchain is a peer-to-peer, distributed ledger that is cryptographically secure,

append-only, immutable (extremely hard to change), and updateable only via consensus or agreement

among peers. As a database, a blockchain stores information electronically in digital format. Blockchains

are best known for their crucial role in cryptocurrency systems, such as Bitcoin, for maintaining a secure

and decentralized record of transactions. A block is a place in a blockchain where information is stored and

encrypted. Blocks are identified by long numbers that include encrypted transaction information from

previous blocks and new transaction information. Blocks and the information within them must be verified

by a network before new blocks can be created. Blocks and blockchains are not used solely by

cryptocurrencies. They also have many other uses. Each block contains its data, hash as well as hash of the

previous block. Hence this storing the hash of previous blocks creates a chain called as Blockchain.

Experiment No. 2
Aim : Implementation of Merkle Tree using Python programming

Software : Google Colab

Theory :

Merkle Root Tree Hash:

A Merkle root is the hash of all the hashes of all the transactions that are part of a block in

a blockchain network. A blockchain is comprised of various blocks that are linked with one

another (hence the name blockchain). A hash tree, or the Merkle tree, encodes the blockchain data

in an efficient and secure manner. It enables the quick verification of blockchain data, as well as

quick movement of large amounts of data from one computer node to the other on the peer-to-peer

blockchain network.

Merkle tree is a fundamental part of blockchain technology. It is a mathematical data

structure composed of hashes of different blocks of data, and which serves as a summary of all the

transactions in a block. A Merkle tree stores all the transactions in a block by producing a digital

fingerprint of the entire set of transactions. It allows the user to verify whether a transaction can

be included in a block or not. Merkle trees are created by repeatedly calculating hashing pairs of nodes

Page | 15
Rizvi College of Engineering CSDL7022 (Blockchain Lab)

until there is only one hash left. This hash is called the Merkle Root, or the Root Hash. The Merkle

Trees are constructed in a bottom-up approach. Every leaf node is a hash of transactional data,

and the non-leaf node is a hash of its previous hashes. Merkle trees are in a binary tree, so it

requires an even number of leaf nodes. If there is an odd number of transactions, the last hash

will be duplicated once to create an even number of leaf nodes.

The Merkle Tree maintains the integrity of the data. If any single detail of transactions or order of

the transaction's changes, then these changes reflected in the hash of that transaction. This change

would cascade up the Merkle Tree to the Merkle Root, changing the value of the Merkle root and

thus invalidating the block. So everyone can see that Merkle tree allows for a quick and simple

test of whether a specific transaction is included in the set or not.

Experiment No. 3
Aim : Implementation of Banking Transactions using Metamask, Solidity, Remix IDE.

Software : Remix IDE

Theory :

MetaMask

MetaMask is a cryptocurrency wallet and browser extension developed to interact with the Ethereum

blockchain. It serves as a bridge between users' web browsers and the decentralized world of Ethereum.

With MetaMask, users can securely manage their Ethereum-based assets, including Ether and ERC-20

tokens, by generating and safeguarding their public and private keys. The extension allows users to access

and interact with decentralized applications (DApps) seamlessly directly from their web browsers. It utilizes

the Web3.js library and follows the Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 1102, prioritizing user privacy

and security.

When performing transactions, MetaMask prompts users to review and sign them with their

private keys, ensuring only authorized actions are executed. Additionally, MetaMask provides a seed phrase

during setup, acting as a backup to restore access in case of device loss. As a widely-used and essential tool

for Ethereum enthusiasts, MetaMask simplifies the complex processes of blockchain interactions, making

the decentralized ecosystem more accessible and user-friendly.

Solidity

Solidity is a high-level programming language used for developing smart contracts on the Ethereum

blockchain. It enables developers to create self-executing contracts with specific rules and conditions,

which automatically execute actions when predefined conditions are met. These smart contracts are stored

on the Ethereum blockchain, making them immutable and transparent.

Solidity is designed to be similar to JavaScript, making it accessible to developers with web development

backgrounds. It supports various data types, control structures, and object-oriented programming concepts,

allowing for flexible and expressive contract development.

Page | 20
Rizvi College of Engineering CSDL7022 (Blockchain Lab)

One of the key features of Solidity is its ability to handle Ether (the native cryptocurrency of Ethereum)

and interact with other Ethereum-based tokens. It facilitates secure and transparent transactions without the

need for intermediaries, making processes more efficient and cost-effective.

However, Solidity is not without challenges. Since smart contracts are immutable, bugs or vulnerabilities

in the code can lead to irreversible consequences. Therefore, it's crucial for developers to follow best

practices and conduct thorough testing to ensure the security and reliability of their smart contracts.

Remix IDE

Remix IDE is a web-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) tailored for Ethereum smart

contract development using Solidity. It offers a user-friendly code editor with syntax highlighting and auto-

completion, simplifying contract writing. Developers can compile, deploy, and interact with smart contracts

directly from the IDE, streamlining the development process. Remix supports debugging and unit testing,

helping identify and fix issues during development. It also provides a gas and EVM simulation feature for

estimating contract execution costs. Additionally, security analysis tools assist in identifying potential

vulnerabilities in smart contracts, promoting more secure coding practices. With its accessibility and

powerful features, Remix IDE is a valuable tool for Ethereum developers, facilitating the creation of

decentralized applications and smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain.

Crowdfunding

It is a crowdfunding is the use of small amounts of capital from a large number of individuals to

finance a new business venture. Crowdfunding has created the opportunity for entrepreneurs to raise

hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars from anyone with money to invest.

Crowdfunding provides a forum to anyone with an idea to pitch it in front of waiting investors.

A crowdfunding smart contract is a type of decentralized application (DApp) built on the Ethereum

blockchain that facilitates the collection and distribution of funds for a specific project or cause. It allows

individuals to contribute their funds (usually in the form of cryptocurrency) towards a fundraising goal, and

once the goal is met or a predefined deadline is reached, the funds are automatically released to the project

Theory :

Introduction:

Geth, short for Go-Ethereum, is one of the most widely used and prominent Ethereum clients. Developed
in the Go programming language, Geth is an essential component of the Ethereum network that enables
nodes to interact with the blockchain. In this case study, we will explore the features, use cases, and
significance of Geth in the context of the decentralized ecosystem.

Background:

Ethereum is a decentralized blockchain platform that supports smart contracts and decentralized
applications (DApps). To be part of the Ethereum network, nodes need to connect to the blockchain and
communicate with each other. Geth is one of the core clients that allows nodes to perform these functions.

Features and Functionality:

Node Operations: Geth serves as a node implementation, meaning it enables computers to participate in
the Ethereum network as either a full node or a light node. A full node stores the entire Ethereum
blockchain, while a light node synchronizes only a subset of the blockchain data, reducing storage
requirements.

Mining: Geth includes functionalities for mining, which involves solving complex cryptographic puzzles
to validate transactions and create new blocks. Miners are rewarded with Ether for their efforts.

Smart Contracts: Geth facilitates the deployment and execution of smart contracts. Developers can use
Geth to interact with smart contracts by sending transactions to them, modifying their state, or retrieving
data from them.

Ethereum API: Geth provides an extensive API for developers to interact with the Ethereum blockchain
programmatically. This API allows applications to access blockchain data, execute transactions, and
integrate with smart contracts.

Page | 48
