A great book anyway

The writer does a great job showing a well-structured overview of BlockChain from both a developmental view and an applying aspect. The technical explanation is a bit too conceptual, so if you are interested in some technical details, you won't find it here. A great book anyway.

New way to earning money

This book has the awareness about the technology that has the power to restructure Wall Street. Also, essential structures and technical ideas of Blockchain are well explained so that we could learn and know the benefits and hurdles as we face its application.This book did not only tell us but even excite our desire to engage further with this radical division to the status quo. A very good avenue for using time in a wise manner.

Does not work well in audio form

The book contains a lot of code and URLs intended to be read, not heard. In one instance the narrator has to read out a string of about 40 zeroes part of a HEX command and chuckles to himself as if to underline the ridiculousness of that.

If you get this book be prepared to listen to a lot of "bitcoin.stackexchange.com forwardslash questions forwardslash four nine eight seven six forwardslash how dash long dash does dash it dash take dash to dash confirm".

And just skip the section that goes into code...
