Hi, darkie199!

It is only inspiring that you are committed to learning about blockchain.

I understand how hard it can be to learn about such complex topics, as cryptography, consensus algorithms, and mining. I've been there.
I know the amount of information available online is overwhelming.

This is why we at Finrazor have prepared a series of educational articles available at: https://finrazor.com/news/category/essential.

You can start at the very beginning with What is Bitcoin,
and then go on to learn about how bitcoin transaction work
and what soft and hard forks are.

As for books, I would recommend Melanie Swan's Blockchain: A Blueprint for a New Economy. It helped a lot when I was starting out.

Thank you for your interest! Have a good day!
