Matias Fernandez has a very good example implementation of a blockchain exercise written in Ruby. In this post I want to use it to explain, in very simple terms, what a bitcoin blockchain is and why it’s so resilient.

Fantastic article.

Check out this example implementation from Matias Fernandez.
