Nanocoin - PoC cryptocurrency written in Haskell

Nanocoin is a PoC cryptocurrency written in Haskell. It is under development to illustrate that the foundations of DLTs (Distributed Ledger Techonology) and aid in dispelling the air of mystery about what a cryptocurrency is. The project attempts to present the necessary cryptographic components and distributed systems knowledge necessary to implement a cryptocurrency.

Overview of Basic Cryptocurrency Components

This document serves as a brief overview of blockchain components and how to implement a cryptocurrency from scratch. Basic blockchain knowledge is assumed, but brief overviews of the basic components are included.

Cryptography

There are many cryptographic components that come together to make block chains and cryptocurrency implementations more secure. Nanocoin uses Haskell's most notable cryptography library known as cryptonite as it provides all the cryptographic functions and datatypes relevant to a cryptocurrency implementation.
