A short introduction to what Blockchain is

Maybe this book is written for those with no knowledge of what Blockchain is and in this case it is a good introduction, though somewhat pushy. Those looking for more in-depth analysis will miss it in this very quick read.

A really SIMPLIFIED guide

Its ok as an over simplified overview. It would be more enjoyable if it was not read in a style and voice as when a bad insurance seller tryes to convince you about good things in a realy bad deal.

Good but speaks fast

The speaker is hyper and speaks as if note taking is not possible! Just slow down and it's great!!!
