Here is my personal flow chart!
- Start with the following video:
The above video by 3Blue1Brown comprehensively explains everything a beginner developer should know about the basic working principle behind the blockchain technology.
- Once you digest the working principle behind blockchains, read the actual white-papers which are precursors to the tangible (can I call it that!) technologies that we know to be Bitcoin Network, and Ethereum Network
Skimming through them would give you a stark idea on the differences between the technologies, and how Ethereum surpasses Bitcoin's modus operandi of being a proof of concept for a decentralised economy.
- At this stage, if you are more technically inclined; I suggest — whatthefuckisethereum.com
- Bravo, you know way more than a "blockchain-layman" developer! Now go ahead, and build some awesome contracts on the Ethereum network, or go issue your own crypto tokens. 😁👇
