Blockchain Revolution - How the Technology Behind Bitcoin and and Other Cryptocurrencies Is Changing the World - Grand Format

In this revelatory book, Don Tapscott, the bestselling author of Wikinom-ics, and his son, blockchain expert Alex Tapscott, bring us a brilliantly researched, highly readable, and essential book about the technology driving the future of the economy. Blockchain is the Internet of Value, an ingeniously simple, revolutionary protocol that allows anything of value - including money, stocks, music, intellectual property, and even our identities - to be managed and transacted peer to peer.
Though it's best known as the technology that drives bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, it also has the potential to go far beyond currency, to record virtually everything of value to humankind - from birth and death certificates to insurance claims, land titles, and even votes. As with major paradigm shifts that preceded it, blockchain technology will create winners and losers. This book shines a light on where it can lead us in the next decade and beyond.
