Top marks from me.

This really is a high quality product. I’ve bought a few other blockchain books but got bored pretty quickly as the same facts were regurgitated over and over but I’m glad to say this one is different from the others.

I’m happy with that!

Well I learned how to buy and store bitcoin and by mid morning I had done just that. I followed the step by step guidance in this audiobook and successfully purchased bitcoin and a secure wallet to store it in. I appreciated the detailed chapters on securing cryptocurrency.

WOW!

I never knew that bitcoin was so versatile. It is the future of money for sure. I was fascinated to hear about the internet of things and how the financial servicers are disrupted.

Very well researched and up to date.

I already have the paperback but wanted the audio to listen to in the car on the way to work. The advice is excellent.
