GoBlock

GoBlock is a simple blockchain implementation in Go (Golang) that utilizes UTXO (Unspent Transaction Output), memory store, Merkle tree, and more.

Overview

GoBlock is a blockchain project written in Go, featuring various functionalities like transaction handling, block validation, and chain management. It includes components such as UTXO management, Merkle tree implementation, and cryptographic operations.

Getting Started

To get started with GOblock, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone github.com/Ali-Assar/GoBlock.git
   

2. Navigate to the project directohttps://github.com/Ali-Assar/GoBlock.gitry:

   cd GOblock
   

3. Install dependencies:

   go mod tidy
   

4. Run the main program:

   go run main.go
   

Features

• UTXO Management: GOblock utilizes the UTXO model for handling transactions.
• Memory Store: The project employs an in-memory storage mechanism for blocks and transactions.
• Merkle Tree: Merkle tree implementation is used for efficient verification of block integrity.
• Cryptographic Operations: GOblock employs cryptographic operations for transaction and block validation.
• gRPC Integration: The project uses gRPC for communication between nodes.

Usage

GOblock can be used for educational purposes, as a basis for building decentralized applications (dApps), or for experimenting with blockchain technology.
