Bitcoin Explained Simply

An Easy Guide to the Basics That Anyone Can Understand

De: Mark Jeffrey

Narrado por: Bob Milhoan

Industry Expert Mark Jeffrey is an award-winning serial entrepreneur of innovative technology companies backed by Tier One investors, and now he breaks down Bitcoin for you in simple, easy-to-understand language!

It is still very early in the Bitcoin game: only 0.03% of the world owns bitcoins; we still have 99.97% left to go! Knowing the contents of this book is literally like knowing about the potential of the Internet back in 1993!

In this volume, you'll learn:

• Exactly what Bitcoin is - and isn't (for example: how is this different from Paypal? Hint: Very)
• How Bitcoins works, explained in everyday, non-technical language, with metaphors that are easy for anyone to understand
• How to get your own Bitcoins right now!
• How to spend Bitcoins - and accept them
• How to Mine bitcoins (and learn exactly how mining works!)
• A detailed, simple explanation of the "blockchain" mechanism - the "flux capacitor", if you will - that makes Bitcoin possible!
• The history of Bitcoin, as well as up-to-date stories and anecdotes of how it is being used right now!
• How you can protect yourself against Bitcoin theft and scams
• Links and recommendations of Bitcoin products

This is exactly the book I wish someone had handed to me when I was first learning about Bitcoin.
