Publisher's Synopsis
Cryptocurrency, and the blockchain technology that makes it possible, is a societal revolution nothing short of Henry Ford's automobile, the printing press, or the Internet itself. In slightly more than a decade, cryptocurrency has rewritten a lot of the ways that both business and finance happen, and are seen as a tremendous element of change to some, and as a threat to others.
The purpose of this text is to give you a brief history of both technologies, where they began, how they have evolved, what they are being used for today and where they are headed in the future. Whether you are cryptocurrency's biggest fan or biggest skeptic, it is our hope that you come out of this book with more knowledge, more history, and the ability to make your own decision on what role cryptocurrency and blockchain will play in your future.
