Harmony Blockchain Introduction + Pros and Cons

Image
The main purpose of all blockchains has been decentralizing peer-to-peer transactions. After Bitcoin, Ethereum managed to propose a more useful blockchain for decentralized applications. As blockchain users grew in number, all networks faced the problem of scalability. Since then, all the developers have worked hard to solve this issue. Among all the ecosystems, Harmony has provided one of the best solutions to solve this problem by proposing the Sharding mechanism. This mechanism solves the problem of scalability in addition to the speed of the transactions. In this article we are going to get familiar with the Harmony blockchain, its architectures, goals, distinctions compared to other blockchains, and so on. We are also going to work on some of the scripts related to the transactions and the validators. Moreover, we will create accounts, and wallets and get some test One tokens Harmony Blockchain Architecture Harmony is one of the very few blockchains that have solved the...

Harmony Blockchain: Getting Familiar with It Using Python

In this article, we are going to get familiar with the Harmony blockchain. and install the dependencies such as Docker to be able to connect to the Harmony blockchain. After installing everything and connecting to the blockchain, using the Python scripts , we will get some data from the shard of the Testnet. What Is Harmony Blockchain? Harmony is a powerful blockchain platform designed to ease and facilitate the development of Dapps. The innovation of Harmony in decentralized applications is based on random state sharding. The random state sharding allows creating blocks faster. This blockchain is EVM compatible with staking features as well. The good news for Python developers is that all the smart contracts in Harmony are written in Python. Developing on Harmony looks very familiar for Ethereum developers because it is fully Ethereum compatible. Installing the Dependencies for Harmony Blockchain To get started with the harmony blockchain, follow the instructions bel...
