Rust Blockchain - Paperback

by Bill G. Kunyiha (Author)

Rust Blockchain: A Full-Stack Implementation Guide takes you from zero to a fully functional blockchain system built entirely in Rust. Across 33 chapters and 696 pages, this hands-on guide covers everything from cryptographic primitives and consensus algorithms to smart contracts, peer-to-peer networking, and wallet development.

Whether you are a Rust developer exploring blockchain technology or a blockchain engineer looking to leverage Rust's performance and safety guarantees, this book provides a complete, production-oriented implementation you can follow from start to finish. Each chapter builds on the last, with working code, architectural explanations, and real-world design decisions throughout.

Topics include SHA-256 hashing and digital signatures, proof-of-work and proof-of-stake consensus, Merkle trees and transaction verification, a full networking layer with peer discovery, smart contract execution, wallet and key management, a REST API layer, and comprehensive testing strategies.
