"Epic. The first great book about crypto." (Andrew Keys, Managing Partner, DARMA Capital)
"A highly dramatic but lucid introduction to the murky world of
cryptocurrency." (Kirkus Reviews)
At the start of this riveting memoir, Dan Conway is a brash young executive in a vast corporation, slogging his way up the ladder while struggling with depression and an addiction he thought he had defeated long ago. As he begins to realize that the mix of nightmarish bureaucracy and his unruly “flip side” have doomed any chance of success, Dan stumbles upon cryptocurrency, tumbling down the rabbit hole to discover a strange, anarchic, but captivating world. He decides to wager everything - his savings, his marriage, his family, his future - on the fledgling crypto, Ether.
In Confessions of a Crypto Millionaire, listeners join Dan on this rollicking, harrowing, frequently hilarious journey, including his:
- Struggle to rise through the corporate ranks
- Battle with addiction and its aftermath
- Bid to reinvent himself
- Efforts to hold his marriage and family together
- And the costs - and thrills - of risking it all.
“For Conway, crypto was only partly about the money. It was also about finding liberation and salvation.” (Forbes)
Dan details in a non-technical and non-preachy way how the idea of blockchain-based decentralization has convinced a generation of dreamers, misfits, and gamblers to too often bet more than they can afford to lose. He illustrates how public blockchains like Ethereum could disrupt the nature of work itself in the coming years, upending stultifying centralized corporations in favor of “trust machines” and peer-to-peer cooperation. In the process, listeners take a thrilling ride with Conway on a turbocharged adventure through crypto, not knowing if he will make history or lose everything he holds dear.

The wild west of crypto is a melting pot of forces for good and evil. Navigating the environment is stressful and time consuming, but most of all chalk full of nearly unlimited, world changing potential. Dan's story will motivate people to find their inner conviction and take immediate and disciplined action for self-improvement.

I have been trying to understand the nuances, workings and fundamentals of blockchain and cryptocurrencies and found Daniel’s explanations to be succinct and to the point.
The book is well written: funny, introspective at the same time - I also listened to the audio, after reading the book, which is well narrated by the author.

Dan Conway’s account of the drudgery of corporate life and self-sabotage combined with his self-aware, honest portrayal of personal shortcomings make for a relatable read with a happy ending.
Afflicted with an alter personality that has a life long tendency to self-sabotage, the ultimate irony is this destructive aspect to Conway’s personality possesses the qualities which drive him to take the risks that lead to financial independence. Conway honestly describes himself at his worst, often unlikeable moments, when making bad and good choices that are relatable.
Though the title includes “Crypto”, this could easily describe any other get-rich obsession. This is an absorbing journey for those who want to understand the emotional highs and lows that accompany rapid wealth transformation (gain & loss) and the desire to risk everything to escape the BS politics and soul crushing aspects of the corporate world.
The performance is solid.
