The Kit includes a knowledge glossary, covering topics such as consensus algorithms, miners, security, smart contracts, token standards, and scalability issues. Regarding cryptography, the glossary provides public and private key encryption, zero-knowledge proofs, digital signatures, and trusted execution environments.

Regarding the programming languages for the ETH-based dapp development, the kit recommends a wide array of Python, Solidity, and JavaScript. For the ETH protocol development, the kit includes programming languages such as Rust, Java, NET, C++, Ruby and Go. ConsenSys cited another survey from the Big Four auditor Deloitte where it shows that 67% of the respondent developers have a strongly positive opinion on blockchain technology.

Another study by the PwC audit firm shows that about 77 percent of the companies are rolling out their own blockchain solutions and 14 percent have no plans to integrate the technology. Consensys announced a huge restructuring for various operations in order to boost up its market presence.

ConsenSys also seeks a $200 million in funding along with the announcement that the Kavita Group will be leaving the VC investment branch which will be consolidated with the ConsenSys labs and accelerator- Tachyon as noted in the latest cryptocurrency news.
