Publisher's summary

If you had bought and held unto $100 of bitcoin in 2010, you would have approximately $41,000,000 today in February 2022!

Those are astronomical gains, but most people didn’t know about bitcoin at that time or understand that it's the future of money. Even today, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and binance coin sound like unintelligible concepts; concepts that only the “experts” - the computer geeks - can understand and take advantage of.

For example, what are NFTs? And, why are people buying them for thousands, and sometimes even millions of dollars? Even a basic understanding of cryptocurrencies eludes most people. Many people simply watch random YouTube videos and throw their hard-earned money blindly into whatever their news feed suggests. This is a recipe for financial disaster. This audiobook, however, will break down all of that complicated language and explain the bare basics of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in an easy-to-listen, easy-to-understand style so that you don’t feel like a lost sheep anymore. You’ll actually understand what all the fuss is about.

This audiobook isn't investment advice. It’s actually better: It gives you a basic understanding of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies so that you can do your own research, follow crypto news, and make your own decisions (if you choose to do so). It’ll go over prominent crypto news as well like the hype for Dogecoin and El Salvador’s decision to make bitcoin legal tender within its borders.

So, get this audiobook now. It’s short and easy-to-listen so that you don’t have to put your life on hold and pore over hundreds of lines of complicated information instead.

Love it! So much great information!

I believe that technology will never go backwards. Who wants to listen to a cassette tape when we have Spotify? Who wants to give up the use of bluetooth and the internet? The same goes for Bitcoin, cryptocurrency and NFTs. These technological advances are here to stay. They may evolve and transform into different variations over time, but the underlying "blockchain technology" will remain.

That's why I love this audiobook so much. It gives you an overview of blockchain and cryptocurrencies so that you can conduct your own research, keep up to date on tech advancements, and make your own decisions. Perfect for beginners who want to learn more about cryptocurrency and NFTs in general. The narration is great and easy to understand. Will definitely be recommending this book to others.

Wow - great book for beginners

I've been avoiding learning about Bitcoin for a long time. I assumed it would be too complicated. I mean, yeah, it is complicated, but this audiobook makes it much easier to comprehend. The author is clearly an expert, and the book is well-organized to help you figure everything out. The author also narrates and does a great job with it.

Great for a true beginner

I’ve listened to a number of audiobooks about cryptocurrency. Never once did I really understand what I was reading. It just didn’t make sense for someone who is novice. This book does a great job of explaining cryptocurrency for a true beginner to understand.

Incredible book for beginners!

For a long time, I've avoided learning about Bitcoin. I assumed it would be far too difficult. Yes, it's difficult, but this audiobook makes it much more understandable. The author is clearly knowledgeable, and the book is well-organized to assist you in understanding everything. The author also narrates, and he does an excellent job.

Learnt a lot through this book!

This book was exactly what I needed right now. Reading and hearing news about crypto currencies, i always wanted to understand the background and basics. Not only this book acts as a basic guide, but also shown me a way to know more about crypto currencies. Now it would be easier to learn more about it since I got most of my understanding through this book.

Feel Secure In Bitcoin and Crypto Now

I loved the straightforward approach to this audiobook! I took a chance and listened to this without having any prior knowledge of the subject. He takes the guesswork out of what works and what doesnt. I love the honest approach and look forward to giving it a try myself now.
