This book will give you all the knowledge you need to explore the fascinating new world of bitcoins
There are few investments in the world today as exciting as bitcoin, the first currency to exist solely on the internet. Decentralized and open source, bitcoin is not under anyone’s control. All transactions are checked, verified and logged by bitcoin users, sidestepping the need for bank or government involvement.
Bitcoin has only been around since 2008, when the innovative blockchain technology that makes cryptocurrency possible was first proposed by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto. Although many aspects of bitcoin are still experimental, the cryptocurrency has been wildly successful. Starting out as a hobby currency for internet enthusiasts, bitcoins have appreciated in value so much that a single bitcoin is now worth thousands of U.S. dollars.
As exciting as bitcoin is, there are still reasons to be cautious. Many people are skeptical of bitcoins because they don’t understand the blockchain concept or because it seems counterintuitive that something without any physical existence can still hold value. Others are skeptical for more concrete reasons, such as bitcoin’s history of price volatility, the huge sums that have been stolen by hackers and the currency’s association with online criminals and the Darknet.
