Chapter-02-Grokking-Ethereum

This podcast on Grokking Ethereum is an introductory guide to the Ethereum platform. It begins by introducing the concept of decentralization and how Ethereum, though decentralised in its architecture, is still centralised in terms of its logic. The excerpt explores the core components of Ethereum, including its Mist browser, Whisper messaging system, and Swarm storage network. The author then examines the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which facilitates smart contract execution, and discusses Turing completeness and the role of gas in managing performance on the Ethereum blockchain. The excerpt further delves into the structure of Ethereum blocks and mining, highlighting the differences between Ethereum (ETH) and Ethereum Classic (ETC). Finally, the author concludes by discussing the various types of Ethereum wallets and client interfaces, including the Light Ethereum Mobile Wallet (LETH).
