Inside Blockchain Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies

This book covers blockchain from the underlying principles to how it enables applications to survive and surf on its shoulder. Having covered the fundamentals of blockchain, the book turns to cryptocurrency. It thoroughly examines Bitcoin before presenting six other major currencies in a rounded discussion. The book then bridges between technology and finance, concentrating on how blockchain-based applications, including cryptocurrencies, have pushed hard against mainstream industries in a bid to cement their positions permanent. It discusses blockchain as underlying banking technology, crypto mining and offering, cryptocurrency as investment instruments, crypto regulations, and markets.Additional ISBNs1138618152, 0429325533, 9781138618152, 9780429325533Inside Blockchain, Bitcoin, and Cryptocurrencies 1st Edition is written by Niaz Chowdhury and published by Auerbach Publications (T&F).
