Acerca de esta escucha
The Promise of Blockchain delivers a clear, insightful, and surprisingly entertaining guide to one of the most hyped—and most misunderstood—technologies of our time. Economist and futurist Jason Schenker cuts through the confusion, decoding blockchain, Bitcoin, and crypto-assets for business professionals, investors, policymakers, and tech-curious readers alike.
From poolside conversations with Federal Reserve officials to private briefings at NATO, Schenker has been on the front lines of blockchain’s rise. In this book, he distills years of research, speaking, and advising into a comprehensive yet accessible explanation of what blockchain is, what it isn’t, and what it could become.
Inside, you’ll discover:
What makes blockchain different from Bitcoin, ICOs, and crypto
How blockchain can eliminate central points of failure in business, data, and security
Why industries like logistics, finance, and agriculture are ripe for blockchain disruption
Where blockchain faces major limitations—in property, healthcare, government, and more
The risks of digital currencies, including fraud, regulation, and cybercrime
How quantum computing could rewrite the rules of cryptography
With original research, humor, analogies (Die Hard bearer bonds, anyone?), and graphics, The Promise of Blockchain is a practical field guide for understanding blockchain’s real potential—beyond the buzzwords.
Whether you’re a strategist, economist, investor, or simply blockchain-curious, this book gives you the knowledge to think critically—and creatively—about where blockchain fits in the future of business, tech, and society.
