    About this ebook

    BLOCKCHAIN


    The next step in the technological revolution is here with Blockchain!


    Blockchain technology is in the news more and more these days, especially as Bitcoin prices continue to climb closer and closer to $20,000 per unit. Generating plenty of news for speculative investors to obsess over is only one of its many uses, however, and it is likely going to be those who put it to use solving problems in new and creative ways that really win out once all the speculation has finished. If you want to make sure you are on the right side of the coming technological revolution, then Blockchain: A Guide to Understanding Blockchain is the book you have been waiting for.


    Each blockchain is a decentralized database which stores data in such a way that it allows for easy access by a wide variety of users while still offering top rate security and ease of use. It is for these reasons that many experts are already calling it the most significant new technological innovation since the creation of the internet despite the fact that less than 50 percent of the population can accurately describe what a blockchain is, and less than 10 percent interact with it on a regular basis.


    If that sounds like you, then you will appreciate the fact that inside you will find a breakdown of blockchain technology, along with suggestions for how to use it to improve your business, whatever it may be, a breakdown of the basics of the major cryptocurrencies on the market today and what the future might hold for this amazing technology.


    This book will cover the following:


    • The Fundamentals of Blockchain
    • Smart Contracts
    • The Story Behind Blockchain
    • How Blockchain Works
    • Main Participants in a Blockchain Transaction
    • Key Elements in Block Batching & Stacking


    It will not only cover this, you will also learn about:


    • Utilization of Blockchain and its Importance
    • How Blockchain Can Improve Your Business
    • Learning the Basics and History of Cryptocurrency
    • The Future that Blockchain Holds
    • How it Will Shape the Economy


    Enjoy the third book in the series from Cryptomasher!
