In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, understanding the basics of blockchain technology has become increasingly important.

Blockchain isn't JUST cryptocurrency

As someone who has been involved in crypto and defi since 2019, I have read a few books and watched hundreds of hours of videos regarding crypto. In the few books I have read, I was only given an elementary level of education in regards to the practical applications and mechanics of how the blockchain actually works.

This book takes a deeper dive into the core of blockchain technology without getting too technical. Even though I have been a part of the financial aspects of blockchain for the past 4+ years, I learned new things about how blockchain works, such as Byzantine Fault Tolerance. I also learned about exactly how the blockchain forms a "chain" through the reference of Cryptographic Hash functions that makes it almost impossible to tamper with.

Besides speaking about cryptocurrency, it also gives examples of how blockchain technology can be applied in supply chain records/processes and identification (among others).

The only negative I have to say about this audiobook is that there are some parts that are clearly cut off due to errors (you can hear the clicker used to signify a break when going back to edit). Breaths are inconsistent where in some chapters they aren't noticeable and some they are very noticeable.

Overall this is a great audiobook for those looking to learn more about the blockchain outside of just cryptocurrency.

Simple and easy to follow

The blockchain is not one of the easiest topics to discuss because it is so new and so out of what we are used to. I loved how this book broke it down so that you can understand to a good enough level what entails the decentralized database that's the blockchain. I loved every part of it. It's educative without being overwhelming.

very comprehensive guide

This book is a very comprehensive introduction to blockchain. If you just getting started to learn about blockchain, you might feel it's late, or you are worried of being left out on this possibly the biggest gold rush of the century. I have to admit, I do feel somewhat of that. Especially given the news about bitcoin and the halfing of it, and the sudden raise of the value. I don't know, I might got a bit of fomo - fear of missing out. So I was trying to find some information about blockchain. But the problem is, many blockchain beginner level books are from a few years back, when the topic of blockchain, NFT, bitcoin was like a new kid on the block. However given this few years gone by, many things changed in the industry. How beginner starts to learn about these topics are different from a few years back. And this book brought me some fresh knowledge, with the new trends in it. It's never too late to start. Especially if you also believe it like I do that this is possibly the biggest opporutnity of the century.
