Crypto currency and the business blockchain technology is red hot right now.
From Silicon Valley, to Wall Street, to legions of volunteer computer coders, to the early adopters who are using crypto every day - many very smart people believe that crypto could be the "next Internet" in terms of its scale and impact on the world.
Cryptocurrency raises challenging questions it raises about money and the role of banks and governments which were formerly taken for granted.
The promise of crypto is incredible - to disrupt the antiquated financial services industry and the fees they charge, by providing instant, near-free transactions to anyone with an Internet connection.
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and other crypto assets have a few things in common:
✔️ Borderless.
✔️ Universal access.
✔️ Free from central authorities and middlemen.
But many people find crypto to be rather... cryptic. Perhaps that sounds like you?
This book is different from the others.
Other crypto books are accounts of the technology’s history, or highly technical treatises written for computer programmers.
Instead, The Crypto Intro is a high-quality practical guide, written with the beginner in mind, with all the information a newcomer needs to quickly get to grips with crypto and the exact steps to get started.
