Overview

necessary reading for anyone considering dipping their toe into investing in bitcoin or its peers - US Review of Books Conceived of as a means of facilitating private transactions between anonymous parties, Blockchain is a product of the crypto-anarchist community called the Cypherpunks. This group was founded with the radical premise of someday eliminating all governments. Later, a less anarchistic version of the technology (permissioned Blockchain) was created and adopted by IBM and other companies. Advocates for both types of Blockchain have big plans to change the world. While you don't need to be technically inclined to read The Blockchain Code, if you are, you will learn some new details that other books have overlooked. Written for investors, regulators, businesses, governments, lawmakers, lawyers, journalists, software developers, teachers, students, and just about anyone who wants to learn more about Blockchain, this book meets you at your current level of understanding and moves you forward. Using his experience working in software development on a foreign currency exchange application, Kinsey has the technical background to explain how blockchain works and an economic understanding as to how the outsider perspective gets key details about cryptocurrency wrong. The average reader who has heard about these topics or maybe has done some minor research in them will be surprised to learn about inefficiencies in the process or ties to WikiLeaks, election tampering, and theoretical assassination funding. Eye-opening in all the best ways and relayed with a quality that few non-fiction books ever reach, this in-depth guide is intriguing, shocking, and informative as it covers three decades of history punctuated by the social and technological explosion of the last ten years.RECOMMENDED by the US Review - Michael Radon, US Review of Books Kinsey explains what the technology is, how it works, who created it, and why.

Learn how to cut through the jargon and empty explanations so that you may come to your own conclusions about the technology and what it might mean for the world.
