Badly written. Bad content. Just plain bad.

I only made it through the first chapter and the beginning of the second. I had to stop. First of all, it sounds like this book was written by a fifth grader. Word choice, paragraph structure and syntax are all elementary when not just straight-up bad.

On top of that, I don’t think the content is entirely accurate. For example, the author claims that a benefit of cryptocurrency is that the transactions are faster than regular banking transactions, aaand… I’m not so sure about that one. I wanna say I had to wait a day before I could use the crypto I purchased. Yet even internationally, my debit card, credit card, and money app transactions are pretty much instantaneous.

But the metaphor he uses to rationalize this statement is fallacious. He equates it to sending a letter through the postal service versus sending an email, asserting that the letter sent through the postal service is slower because it has to pass through so many hands to get to the destination, while the email goes directly to the recipient. And that’s COMPLETELY false. An email has to pass through just as many “hands” as the letter if not more. You’ve got all the devices, routers, modems, servers, ISP’s, VPN’s, etc. for the sender, the sender’s email client, the recipient’s email client, and finally the recipient. The real reason why the email is faster is because it’s digital. **face palm**

But even the information that’s not off base is very “surface”. I’ll just excerpt this terribly written and completely unnecessary paragraph, and maybe you’ll get what I’m saying.

“In order for anything to truly make it as a new idea or invention, it has to solve a problem. If it’s not solving a current pain, then people will not buy it. In every way imaginable, we are looking for the easiest ways to do things. If we are to take something on, the convenience and benefits of it must outweigh the inconvenience and time spent learning about that new thing. […] No one is going to switch over from what is comfortable if there are no clear benefits to the other option. As it stands, cryptocurrency is able to solve a whole lot of problems that the banks are not able to or that the banks have actually created.”

If you’d like to make your high school English teacher visibly cringe, just read them that last sentence. Yikes!
