Description: The Internet is great for collaboration and exchanging information, but deeply flawed when it comes to commerce and transactions. By contrast, blockchain technology is private and secure. This book explains why the blockchain technology that powers Bitcoin will fundamentally change the Internet - what it does and how we use it.
Synopsis: The first book to explain why blockchain technology will fundamentally change our livesBlockchain is the ingeniously simple technology that powers Bitcoin. But it is much more than that, too. It is a public ledger to which everyone has access, but which no single person controls. It allows for companies and individuals to collaborate with an unprecedented degree of trust and transparency. It is cryptographically secure, but fundamentally open. And soon it will be everywhere. In Blockchain Revolution, Don and Alex Tapscott reveal how this game-changing technology will shape the future of the world economy, dramatically improving everything from healthcare records to online voting, and from insurance claims to artist royalty payments. Brilliantly researched and highly accessible, this is the essential text on the next major paradigm shift. Read it, or be left behind.'Blockchain Revolution is a highly readable introduction to a bamboozling but increasingly important field' - GuardianDon Tapscott is one of the most influential living theorists about business and society. He is the bestselling author of Wikinomics, The Digital Economy, and a dozen other acclaimed books about tech-nology, business, and society. Alex Tapscott is the CEO and founder of Northwest Passage Ventures, an advisory firm building blockchain companies. Previously, he worked for seven years in investment banking in New York and Toronto.
