About The Site

Build Blockchain Tech offers resources for developers and entrepreneurs who want to go deep on blockchain tech. From Ethereum smart contract coding to Bitcoin internals to cryptography itself, BBT aims to create technical but approachable tutorials for the motivated learner. We're unapologetically "in the weeds," but without losing perspective on the incredible potential this technology holds.

The future will be decentralized. We'll help you build it.
