Until blockchain technology came into the limelight, users were forced to exchange value and trade by employing a third-party intermediary. And now, a revolution is underway, but who can differentiate the SIGNAL from the NOISE? Are we too dependent on the old system prevailing for hundreds of years? This book allows you to look at things from a radically different perspective. This book attempts to look into the world of decentralisation and comprehend its importance. The author dissects the core of what the world has achieved since the invention of bitcoin. Based on ten different chapters, it covers the following: What blockchain is and how it works History of money and how cryptocurrencies differ from the funds we use A brief analysis of Ethereum and its ongoing development Token economics, token-based ecosystems, smart contracts Future of blockchain and what's being done to solve the scalability problems. Many of us believe that bitcoin, altcoins and other cryptocurrencies are a form of investment controlled by the cryptocurrency market. But how many of us realise that it was aimed towards billions of unbanked people around the world? There are lots of questions about the technology itself. Bitcoin has paved the way for a new technological evolution, but is the technology maturing, or is it on the brink of destruction? What are the use cases? How is Ethereum being used to create real-life tradable commodities? Are there any successful startups? What are the governments doing to adopt blockchain technology to facilitate global trade? This nonfiction isn't just a mere book, and it's your door to the world of next-generation technology that will transform your everyday life.★★★★★ Farabi, the author of Exponential Progress , is the Head of Research at IntelXSys(TM) and working as one of the Research Experience Leads for the Clinical Research and Innovation (CRI) module at the Imperial College London.
