About this listen

Decentralized finance (DeFi) touches every facet of modern-day financial markets. Whether you are a newbie day trader or you made your bones on the market when NASDAQ was nascent, decentralized finance has rewritten the rules of the game in invisible ink. Thus, everyone is required to go “back to school” and DeFi Finance is your answer key. This audiobook is the must-have for anyone wanting an "in" to this world of investing where finance and technology are interwoven inexorably.

Why DeFi Finance when there exist a bevy of blogs, vlogs, and books (paperbound and e-books alike)? DeFi Finance starts simply with a definition of itself, and then builds upon that. Each foundational block of information is set down for the listener—the environment in which DeFi was formed, why it was formed, who formed it, how the structure of DeFi exists, and where it exists. Additional blocks are stacked upon that foundation; these blocks are terminology with definitions, categories of currency types, and tangible examples that simplify the abstract concepts unique to DeFi.

With the foundation built and layered, DeFi Finance segues seamlessly into descriptive investment opportunities and straightforward strategies. Finally, the audiobook takes a lengthy look over the upsides and the downsides of decentralized finance, concluding with a face toward its future.

In a world where blocks aren’t cubes, wallets have no slots, and portly penguins are valued at approximately USD$4,000 each, an investor needs a single source, stated simply—and that is DeFi Finance.

Just the right thing!

I think I found just the right thing to help me start my investment journey! I am a huge Ethereum fan, but I did not know enough about it to really invest in it myself. This audiobook has been a great help and a reliable source of information. “DeFi Finance” is comprehensive and certainly is worth the time it takes to listen through it all.

A fresh take on investing in Altcoin

“DeFi Finance” by James McLean provides a fresh take on investing in Altcoin. It is a phenomenal representation of how decentralized finance works and what you should do to achieve success as a Bitcoin investor (or a variety of other Altcoin, for example Ethereum, which is why I purchased this audiobook). I have to admit that the writing style of the author could turn any newbie into an Altcoin investing wizard! It is not only a very comprehensive audiobook with superb narration, but it provides listeners with plenty of information to get started. From common terms and tips to secret strategies, this audiobook is packed with knowledge. I am delighted to give it a 5* review.

Others are no match for this volume

There are many articles and books on Bitcoin/Altcoin investing out there. However, this audiobook provides a fresh new perspective on it. Through the combination of easy-to-understand writing, clear narration, and a variety of covered material, it is one of the most comprehensive guides I found. It even covers the challenges, risks, and requirements you need to watch out for, to show beginners what they should focus on to be a winner! I was especially pleased to find a chapter on “DeFi’s Effects On The World” which is easy to follow and written in an interesting manner. Not only is this audiobook impressive in general, but it is a delightful length, while still covering everything essential to know. A certain 5/5.

Learn all about decentrelized finance

I was gifted this audiobook by a dear friend of mine, who knew how much I wanted to delve into the world of decentralized finance and bitcoin investing. I always made excuses, saying I did not have the time yet, or that I will just get confused. That is when Lizzie took charge and purchased “DeFi Finance” for me to learn from. So far, it was been a pleasure to listen to. Alongside the lovely narration, I gained the much-needed understanding of getting started with Bitcoin investing and the basics, ready to give it a chance, possibly. Because the author provides both beginner and intermediate-friendly tips, I feel like it contains everything one needs to start their own altcoin investing journey.

An incredible book, written by a true expert

This audiobook proved to be extremely useful when I was doing my decentralized finance research. I started with a paperback, but it was not well-written at all, so I looked for something else. “DeFi Finance” seemed very promising - I noticed the wide variety of topics included and decided to give it a go. It was one of the best decisions, as this audiobook is fantastic! It will bring you from the very base concept of decentralized finance investing to explaining the challenges and requirements that come with it. This audiobook is much more useful than anything else I came across, so I highly recommend trying it out.

DeFi and Bitcoin investing

When I was young and studying at college, we did not have Bitcoins, Altcoins or anything fancy like that. We would talk plain old business and economics. These days, guides like “DeFi Finance” help me understand the wonders of today’s world’s investing in Bitcoin and other altcoins. I am a reasonably old chap, so the ability to lisen to audiobooks while sitting in my armchair is always a bonus! When it comes to the narrator, I love their voice – it is clear, loud, and enjoyable to listen to. After chatting to my friend about this audiobook, I convinced him to give it a go since it is not only directed at beginners. One of the best guides out there, I tell you!
