Paperback Engels 2024 1e druk 9789464871593Samenvatting
Are you intrigued by the phenomenon ‘crypto’ but unsure where to start researching? Look no further than this book as your entry point into the world of crypto and blockchain. It provides a clear and concise overview of the entire crypto market along with essential insights into the innovative blockchain technology that is the driver between crypto.
There exists a significant knowledge gap regarding Bitcoin, Altcoins, and blockchain technology among the general population, ranging from production workers to CEOs and politicians. This knowledge deficit persists largely due to the limited awareness surrounding crypto, particularly blockchain technology. Media coverage on the topic is sparse, except by tech platforms or business news media outlets (financial newspapers, radio, and podcasts), or it is often portrayed negatively as environmentally harmful or dismissed as a speculative bubble and lacking intrinsic value. Given this context, why should one invest their time, attention, and capital into this unknown asset class?
This book seeks to demystify the entire crypto market and the revolutionary blockchain technology that is poised to reshape the world. Notably, blockchain technology enables the creation of decentralized payment systems and facilitates the emergence of Web 3.0, ushering in a new era of decentralized internet. In this paradigm, intermediaries such as banks, companies, and network service providers are rendered obsolete, as there is no longer a need for centralized control over networks, servers, or data.
Furthermore, the book offers practical advice on accessing reliable sources of information about crypto and blockchain, devising a sound investment strategy, and selecting cryptocurrencies for trading or long-term wealth accumulation purposes. The accompanying risks are thoroughly assessed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the potential pitfalls associated with investing in crypto. It is essential to note that this book does not constitute financial advice; the author is not a licensed financial advisor.
