Author: PAUL VIGNA
Title: Cryptocurrency
Description: Vintage UK. Paperback. Pp: 320. The system that governs how money works, with its brokers and middlemen, has stayed roughly the same for centuries. Now there`s an alternative, and it puts us on the cusp of a revolution that could reshape our world. At the heart of this lie cryptocurrencies, a technology with the transformative potential of the printing press or the internet. They bypass the elites and cut out the gatekeepers. Unlike traditional money they`re peer-to-peer, they don`t have a nationality, they`re digital and democratic. They are also lawless. For the Afghani woman denied a bank account by a repressive society, or any of the world`s 2.5 billion unbanked individuals, cryptocurrencies open new possibilities. What would a world without banks or credit cards or even national currencies look like for all of us? From Silicon Valley to the streets of Beijing, this is a book about a revolution in the making, a story of human invention, and a guide to the future. ISBN: 9781784700737. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
