Publisher's summary

"Blockchain is the next big unlock." (Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter)

We are on the brink of witnessing a technology revolution. It is being compared to the Internet, mobile, and social media. This doesn't happen very often. In this audiobook, you will find out exactly what everyone is buzzing about and why.

More than one billion dollars have been invested into blockchain. Hundreds of startups and financial organizations are working on improving and scaling this technology. So what exactly is it? To put it simply, blockchain is a piece of software technology that allows people or devices on a network to validate things securely. This is the backbone of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Millionnaires are being made as a result of this. Do you want to stand aside and watch? Or do you want to seize the opportunity?

Inside this audiobook, you will learn:

  • Basics of blockchain: all the necessary fundamentals
  • The blockchain ecosystem: how it works the way it does
  • Applications of blockchain: where it is being used
  • The secret sauce: what makes blockchain so special
  • How to profit from blockchain: investing strategies and potential risks
  • Future of blockchain: What will the landscape look like in 10 years?

The good thing is that blockchain is still in the early stages. A short opening is available for those who are curious enough to learn and explore the options. Five years from now, you will either regret not taking action or be proud that you actually got involved. Either way, the best thing for you to do now is to be informed.

Don't be blind to this revolution!

Get this audiobook today to learn all the essential knowledge about blockchain and stay ahead of the curve.

Happy I found this book

Great book that provides both a good foundation on Blockchain (and what it could mean for business) and also an interesting vision of what will come in the next decade.

blockchain

As the author states, Blockchain is in its infancy. Like comparing websites from the 90s to now, it will be amazing to witness the evolution of this technology.

Brilliant work!

What a brief but concise summative of how blockchain technology really works. The programming languages used and the cryptography were brilliantly explained that even a struggling newbie would be able to grasp.

This passed my expectations.

The said technology has only been here for the last 10 years, but it has already made a mark. I’ve listened to a few Blockchain book but none of them passed my expectations unlike this one. It has carefully illustrated the features that makes anyone be excited for Blockchain Technology. While the audiobook may not be that long, it has unravel some mystery that any reader will be amazed.

Not your typical guide

Not your typical Blockchain guide. Step-by-step process on how to get started in investing are included. I’m a total beginner but I wasn’t intimated as I finish this audiobook. It’s obvious that the author knows what he’s talking about.

I dig this

The blockchain ecosystem was presented nicely. While the book is a serious topic, the tone of the discussion was light and easy. Thus, I dig this!
