demo-chain

As of today, this is a demo project implementing algorithms used in cryptocurrencies. After a while this could be like the Haskell’s version of the pybitcointools project, a library for interacting with the bitcoin blockchain and further including other cryptocurrencies as well.

Resources

There are already a few resources about using Haskell with a focus on blockchain and the crypto-space:

• Introduction to cryptocurrencies in Haskell.
• NanoCoin
• Rolling your own blockchain in Haskell.

Reminders

When computing the merkle tree better use =Data.Sequence=

This is instead of just lists, because it seems to be faster.
