Blockchain: Blueprint to Dissecting The Hidden Economy! - Smart Contracts, Bitcoin and Financial Technology Paperback – December 1, 2016

Full of regurgitated, self referential jargon. No meaningful discussion of technology or use cases. Not clear if the author understands the material himself or if he has copied it from elsewhere to make a quick buck (literally!) off whoever buys this book. Amazon should want to guard its customers against such crap.

This book is laughably bad. Confusion and frustration turned to outright laughter at how poorly this book was written. Every single page is filled with some incredibly pointless, uninformative drivel or truism. Ask someone in the 6th grade to do a report on Blockchain and it would be better than this. The book reads something like this: "Blockchain is like, really good because I think it does good things and is going to do gooder things in the future because it's really useful and good." If you can spare the money, I would actually recommend purchasing this book just to marvel at its incoherence.If you're going to try and turn a buck by hawking self-published books on Amazon (which I'm all for), please, please, please hire a copywriter for your next attempt.Also, every reviewer has reviewed the exact same books? What are the odds?

This books does its best to break down the complicated concept of blockchain. From the basic use of a bitcoin wallet to buy a cup of coffee, to running a bitcoin marketplace with hundreds of thousands of transactions, you'll get a grasp of it all. I loved it! I liked that it went over the drawbacks and advantages of blockchain, listed who should and should not use it, as well as the list of personal and business uses and advantages of it. Overall, this book is well written and easy to understand. I highly recommended.

This book has described everything about blockchain. This advance technology has brought a great level towards internet business system and this book has described it flawlessly. The first chapter has taken my interest because it describes about blockchain and other similar technologies. But inside of this book lies very deep information on blockchain system. This hidden economy will bring very good opportunity for businessmen of this world. If you know how to manipulate blockchain and use of smart contracts then you will surely get huge benefit from it. I think everyone curious about this system should buy this book. It will feed you with legit information.

Blockchain technology is the buzzword in the world of computer science, but it won’t stay limited there for long. It is the concept that has the financial world scrambling to catch up. The most critical reality that I have learn in this book is that blockchain is a method for upsetting business exchanges. This book did not just inform us but even stimulate our desire to engage further with this revolutionary disruption to the status quo. Really an incredible innovation and great book indeed. Essential manual for learn and comprehend blockchain insurgency!

It's clear, concise and well written. It covers present applications, and then takes the reader beyond the now into the realm of possibility. This book shares detailed blockchain guide and gave well-written information how blockchain works and important is this for people who do their transaction online. If you’re interested in how the world around us is developing, blockchain is one of those books that goes out on a limb about its potential and, as a result, can only add to your understanding. This is really worth recommending book!

I think that is the genius of any skilled author, the ability to make a rather complex topic easy to understand. This book provide a lot of information on blockchain system and the hidden economy of bitcoin. What I really like about this book and what the author incorporated in great way, is the vast amount of references, parallels and analogies. An interesting read that describes the blockchain innovation from a very high level perspective and in a comprehensible way.

This book had the worst writing I have ever seen in a book. Every couple of pages there would be a sentence that I had to stop and think what it was supposed to be because of misspelled, wrong or missing words. The author also made numerous statements without any supporting evidence, most of which were clearly just his opinion. It’s not so much this book didn’t provide a better understanding of Blockchain, it confused the matter by mixing technical facts with author opinions, with no indication of which was fact versus opinion.

I don't understand why this book has so many stars in amazon US. Very basic stuff and full of filling sentences (block chains is great, smart contracts are awesome, etc). The whole book could be summarized in 10 pages
