Blockchains are new technology layers that rewire the Internet and threaten to side-step older legacy constructs and centrally served businesses. At its core, a blockchain injects trust into the network, cutting off some intermediaries from serving that function and creatively disrupting how they operate. Metaphorically, blockchains are the ultimate non-stop computers. Once launched, they never go down, and offer an incredible amount of resiliency, making them dependable and attractive for running a new generation of decentralized services and software.

The technology likely to have the greatest impact on the future of the world economy has arrived, and it's not self-driving cars, solar energy, or artificial intelligence. It's called the blockchain. The first generation of the digital revolution brought us the Internet of information. The second generation - powered by blockchain technology - is bringing us the Internet of value: a new, distributed platform that can help us reshape the world of business and transform the old order of human affairs for the better.

Awesome introduction to blockchain
If you don't know anything about blockchain this book describes it in a very simple way. Moreover, you will grasp the concept how Bitcoin works and what are the other uses of blockchain. The last chapter deals with the technical part; I recommend to see other visual materials to grasp the concept. Lastly, if your level of English is good, you can increase the speed.

I think this was a great beginners book. It has a lot of information and it is explained very well. Covers a broad range of blockchain including the capabilities, future uses and its faults. It also covers its history, but doesn't go as deep as I would have liked into how it fully works. If your looking for a quick read to cover the basics and a little more, this would be a great read. The narration was great and has been converted to audio version very well. Instead of reading the full hash code, it reads the first few digits and provides the rest in a sheet you can download. Unfortunately it wasn't provided by Audible, but the author provides it on a site. I received this book as a gift for my honest review.

I must premise this by saying, I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.
This book is exactly what I wanted to be. Concise, but also a complete overview of the history of "digital money", Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, smart contracts and the future of money.
I came to this book with a basic understanding, and feel like it filled in all the gaps in my knowledge about cryptocurrencies. I can see this book being a great primer for anyone interested in getting a complete overview of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and blockchain technologies.
