A robust blockchain implementation using the Proof-of-Work consensus algorithm. Features wallet management, real-time data broadcasting, and cryptographic security.

PoWBlockchain

Overview

PoWBlockchain is a comprehensive blockchain implementation that follows the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus algorithm. Designed with Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles, it offers a foundational structure for a decentralized ledger system with a built-in cryptocurrency wallet.

Features

• Blockchain Core: Robust blockchain logic with block creation, chain validation, and PoW consensus.
• Proof-of-Work Consensus: Implements the PoW consensus algorithm to ensure data integrity and security.
• Cryptocurrency Wallet: Manage transactions, balances, and cryptographic keys.
• Real-time Communication: Utilizes a publish-subscribe model for real-time data broadcasting.
• Configurable Settings: Adjust blockchain parameters like difficulty and rewards.
• Utility Functions: Helper functions for tasks like cryptographic hashing.

Directory Structure

• app: Main application logic and server setup.
• blockchain: Core blockchain logic and algorithms.
• scripts: Utility scripts for automation.
• util: Helper functions used throughout the project.
• wallet: Cryptocurrency wallet logic and functionalities.
