Publisher's summary

Blockchains are modern forms of technology that rewire the Internet and seek to side-step older existing structures and have served companies centrally. A blockchain injects trust into the network at its heart, cutting off certain intermediaries from fulfilling that purpose and creatively undermining their way of operating. Metaphorically, blockchains are the ultimate machines with no stops. They never go down once launched, and deliver an incredible amount of durability, making them stable and enticing to run a new generation of decentralized services and software applications.

Blockchain is the world's first Digital Assets blockchain network. Digital currencies, such as bitcoin and ethereum, enable users to transact directly without any third-party intermediary, and have been designed to transform the financial system dramatically.

There is a lot of speculation about blockchain technology, and misinformation. Although this is a very technical subject, it can be easily understood if the right person teaches it.

You'll know how this new technology actually functions in this concise guide on blockchain. You'll be thoroughly driven by every part of blockchain to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning behind it. You will know everything you need to know about this subject by the end of the book, and be able to use that information for future applications and investments.

The purpose of these books is not to plumb the depths of mathematical wizardry, as much of the information available on cryptocurrencies and blockchain assumes a fairly advanced level of experience with cryptography, computer programming, financial markets and mathematics in general, but rather to serve as an introduction to the wider architecture and conceptual context of cryptocurrenceny.

Take advantage of the underlying Bitcoin technology, the blockchain, to create massively scalable, decentralized applications known as dapps. You can learn how the cryptographically encrypted ledger, scarce-asset model, and peer-to-peer (P2P) platform of the blockchain offers a more robust, better-encouraged framework than current software models.

This book will concentrate on how blockchain technology operates and how it could be used in the future instead of thinking about investing. Topics in this book you can hope to see include:

  • How blockchain works
  • How bitcoin works
  • Picking a blockchain
  • Blockchain application development
  • Crytography and technical foundation
  • The ten rules to never break on the blockchain
  • And more

Great Overview

Short but sweet overview on blockchain. I had literally zero understanding of how blockchain works prior to this listening this, but can now hold my own in a conversation, and know which pieces interest me more, so I can narrow additional listening and research to those parts.
