Author Jimmy Song shows Python programmers and developers how to program a Bitcoin library from scratch. You’ll learn how to work with the basics, including the math, blocks, network, and transactions behind this popular cryptocurrency and its blockchain payment system. By the end of the book, you'll understand how this cryptocurrency works under the hood by coding all the components necessary for a Bitcoin library. Learn how to create transactions, get the data you need from peers, and send transactions over the network. Whether you’re exploring Bitcoin applications for your company or considering a new career path, this practical book will get you started. Parse, validate, and create bitcoin transactions Learn Script, the smart contract language behind Bitcoin Do exercises in each chapter to build a Bitcoin library from scratch Understand how proof-of-work secures the blockchain Program Bitcoin using Python 3 Understand how simplified payment verification and light wallets work Work with public-key cryptography and cryptographic primitives Review: Learning is awesome - It is very detailed. Review: If your looking at bitcoin program/concepts this is a wonderful start. - This is a more important book then most people will probably realize... It's not perfect. but if your looking to connect concepts to build connections between thoughts and doing... then this is probably the single most best resources you are going to find. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #745,895 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #155 in Web Encryption #163 in Computer Cryptography #200 in Bitcoin & Cryptocurrencies | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 190 Reviews | ## Images ![Programming Bitcoin: Learn How to Program Bitcoin from Scratch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91wtm6WbjuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learning is awesome *by A***S on May 9, 2026* It is very detailed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If your looking at bitcoin program/concepts this is a wonderful start. *by T***N on March 24, 2026* This is a more important book then most people will probably realize... It's not perfect. but if your looking to connect concepts to build connections between thoughts and doing... then this is probably the single most best resources you are going to find. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ See how the sausage is made *by P***E on March 31, 2022* Excellent, in-depth, technical overview of how bitcoin works under the hood. This book is a hands-on project book that will take you through building a proof-of-concept bitcoin library, step-by-step. The library you'll build can parse and validate transactions, verify blocks, interact with other nodes on the bitcoin network and more. Like other reviews mentioned, this is an advance level book. It's not a book for folks new to bitcoin or folks without programming experience. I also agree that reading Mastering Bitcoin first will make this book a much better experience because you'll know where each of the modules you're building fits in the bigger picture. The author has set up the hands-on project as Jupyter Notebooks which makes it really nice to code along the text. In addition, he goes into more details on the math behind elliptic curve cryptography which I appreciated. Overall, highly recommended for people that want to remove the veil and see how bitcoin works to the smallest detail. ## Frequently Bought Together - Programming Bitcoin: Learn How to Program Bitcoin from Scratch - Mastering Bitcoin: Programming the Open Blockchain - Mastering the Lightning Network: A Second Layer Blockchain Protocol for Instant Bitcoin Payments --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/88684349-programming-bitcoin-learn-how-to-program-bitcoin-from-scratch](https://www.desertcart.it/products/88684349-programming-bitcoin-learn-how-to-program-bitcoin-from-scratch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-06-29*
