Grab the ultimate course on Solidity & Smart Contract development, and supercharge your blockchain earning potential by learning how to build for one of the hottest niches on Ethereum!
Get instant access to The DeFi Developer Bootcamp, and get the skills to become a highly paid Blockchain Developer for one of Ethereum's hottest niches!
Module 1: Automated Market Makers
Master the tokenomics of an Automated Market Makers.
Module 2: The Solidity Deep Dive
Learn how to program in Solidity for the EVM.
Module 3: Uniswap Contracts Walkthrough
Get a complete Smart Contract walkthrough of Uniswap v2.
Module 4: Develop A Decentralized Exchange
Get step-by-step guidance as you develop your own DEX.
Module 1:
First, you're going to master the Tokenomics of Decentralized Exchanges.
One of the coolest things about being a Solidity & DeFi Developer is that you can create all sorts of "micro-economies" and Decentralized Business Models.
Automated Market Maker (AMM) technology is a clever combination of mathematics, economics, and Smart Contracts used to remove the middleman on a centralized exchange.
And they're highly successful because they create the right economic incentives via their underlying tokenomics!
Module 2:
Then, you're going to learn how to program with Solidity for the EVM in just 17 lessons.
The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) is a decentralized virtual computer that exists everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
What could you do with something powerful like that?
The EVM lets you deploy and use censorship-resistant and indestructible computer programs we call "Smart Contracts". Contracts let you encode all sorts of decentralized, non-custodial, and permissionless protocols that facilitate all sorts of peer-to-peer transactions.
Module 3:
Then, I'm going to guide you through the Uniswap v2 Smart Contract source code because its brilliant.
There's simply no better way to learn Solidity than by reading the Smart Contract source code that has proven itself to be very secure.
In the bootcamp, you get a guided walkthrough of the Uniswap v2 contracts which is a fascinating journey into the inner workings of a DeFi protocol with over $1 trillion USD in cumulative lifetime trading volume!
Module 4:
Finally, you're going to take all the skills you've learned and develop your own Minimally Viable Decentralized Exchange!
After you understand the formulas of Automated Market Makers which I show you, I then guide you through the development of a Minimally Viable Decentralized Exchange...using Test Driven Development (TDD)!
Congratulations, you're now a Solidity Developer with massive earning potential!
The tools and processes you'll be mastering in this developer training course.
With any software development endeavor, you need the right tools and processes. In The DeFi Developer Bootcamp, you'll master the HardHat contract development framework.
You'll also gain expertise in using an important Ethereum JavaScript library called Ethers.js, as you employ an essential software development best practice called Test-Driven Development (TDD).
Learn the worst Smart Contract attacks, and how to prevent them!
Reentrancy attacks, Replay Attacks, Oracle Exploits, Arithmetic Overflows and Underflows, etc. You're dealing with potentially a lot of money and value. Other's people's money and value, so you need to know what these attacks are.
The top Smart Contract design patterns every Solidity Developer MUST know.
There are many design patterns you will get familiar with as a DeFi Developer, and in the bootcamp we cover 4 main ones used by Uniswap. They are: Mutex, Singleton Factories, Agnostic Transfer, Binary Contract System.
Programming with cryptocurrencies requires very special skills because we're dealing with money.
That's because the EVM does not support floating point decimal values. The EVM only supports integers, and for very good reasons.
That's where "DeFi Math" comes in, and you'll master this quickly once you join the bootcamp.
Developing gas efficient Contracts is a big part of DeFi development, because Gas is the fuel of Ethereum.
On a high level, Gas is the fuel of Ethereum.
For DeFi Traders, the details of Gas are complex because they need to strike a balance between paying enough Gas to get their transactions on-chain quickly...and maximizing their profit potential.
Every technical domain has its own business lingo, and DeFi is no exception.
Impermanent Loss is a situation that can occur where it would have been more profitable to keep a crypto asset in a wallet instead of depositing it into a liquidity pool.
And Slippage is a phenomena that occurs on blockchain because transaction submission time is not the same as transaction confirmation time. When you have substantial Slippage, you can get an undesired result from a trade.
Knowing the benefits and pitfalls of DeFi trading is an essential part of your DeFi development toolkit.
What are the prerequisites to joining the bootcamp?
How long does it take to complete the bootcamp?
Is the bootcamp pre-recorded or live?
Is there a Discord channel in case I get stuck with a concept or code implementation?
Can I buy the course with crypto?
Grab the ultimate course on Smart Contract development!
This is the *missing* course that developers who are new to Ethereum have been begging for! Stop wasting your time with random tutorials on the internet. This is the only course you need as you explore Smart Contract development for the EVM!
Course Instructor
Hi I'm Mark Joseph (Muskardin), and your instructor.
I was fascinated by Automated Market Maker technology when I first started using Uniswap. On a high level, Uniswap is a Decentralized Business Model in action, and I just had to know how it worked underneath the hood.
But I was really stumped in the beginning, How do you learn the code for one of Ethereum's most successful DeFi protocols that is secure enough to process trillions of dollars worth of value?
There was no one to guide me. So I just rolled up my sleeves and studied the Smart Contract source code.
Then I created The DeFi Developer Bootcamp so others wouldn't have to go through months and months of struggle trying to figure out how to program in Solidity for the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine).
The Ethereum community needs many Solidity Developers who can read the Smart Contract source code for all of the various decentralized, non-custodial, censorship-resistant, and permissionless protocols that are being created.
So join me on this fascinating journey down the DeFi rabbit hole if you're called to develop for decentralized crypto.
It's a challenging field for sure. But I believe that challenges don't hold you back...they set you free.
