I think if you are looking for a general understanding of blockchain and how it actually works it is not a good course for it. But in general the lectures Don and Alex give a very broad ideas about the implementations, problems and opportunities of blockchain. I would take this course if I have had an understanding of technicals of blockchain then one can get more from this course

The course offered good information for beginners in blockchain technology it opened up my mind a little bit more to exactly what blockchain is and what you can do with it I found some of the reading to be a little bit out of date in regards to the days blockchain Technologies but other than that I thought it was a very good course
