Advancing my Open-Source PoW Blockchain: Introducing Smart Contract Wallets & Enhanced Security Features
Introduction
When it comes to producing and maintaining blockchain technologies, the integration of new functionalities is crucial for staying relevant and secure. My latest enhancements to the open-source Proof of Work (PoW) blockchain not only streamline the core architecture but also introduce an innovative feature: smart contract wallets. This update emphasizes not just the inclusion of new capabilities but also a strong focus on security, particularly through the rigorous validation of smart contracts. Let’s delve into these upgrades, showcasing the improvements with detailed code snippets and explanations.
Modular Codebase Refinement
Firstly, the codebase underwent a significant restructuring to enhance modularity. This reorganization helps in isolating functionalities into distinct modules such as Transaction
, Block
, Node
, and now SmartContract
, each within its own file. This approach simplifies maintenance and scales the development process efficiently.
# block.py
class Block:
# Focused on block-related operations
pass
# transaction.py
class Transaction:
# Handles all transaction logic
pass
