Download or read book Blockchain written by Tim Mathis and published by Level Up Lifestyle Limited. This book was released on with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A blockchain is a digitized, decentralized, public ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions. Constantly growing as ‘completed’ blocks, the most recent transactions are recorded and added to it in chronological order, it allows market participants to keep track of digital currency transactions without central recordkeeping. Each node (a computer connected to the network) gets a copy of the blockchain, which is downloaded automatically. Originally developed as the accounting method for the virtual currency Bitcoin, blockchains, which use what's known as distributed ledger technology – are appearing in a variety of commercial applications today. Currently, the technology is primarily used to verify transactions, within digital currencies though it is possible to digitize, code and insert practically any document into the blockchain. Doing so creates an indelible record that cannot be changed; furthermore, the record’s authenticity can be verified by the entire community using the blockchain instead of a single centralized authority.

Download or read book Cryptocurrency Digital Revolution written by Edward Beckett and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is here to stay... Are you tired of trusting different middlemen with your hard earned money? Would you prefer instant payments over several business day transactions? Maybe you'd just like to earn some additional income? Earliest known ideas of a practical digital currency started around the late 1980s. The first version of actual real-life implementation was introduced by anonymous people, known as Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. This implementation was Bitcoin, digital currency working on the blockchain, providing functions never seen before. In the present you may have heard of Bitcoin, and think yourself: "is it too late for me to get in now" let me ask you. How do you value a currency that functions quickly without the need for a middleman, and has less than 21 million coins available? There's a lot more that goes into it, but these are the very basic principles of Bitcoin. Before making your educated decision on the matter, let me provide you with the facts. Neither cryptocurrencies nor blockchain is nowhere near mass adoption level, meaning you have the opportunity to learn the concept and decide for yourself if you see the potential. Being there "before everyone else" obviously has its benefits, like one Bitcoin being barely above 1000$ at the beginning of 2017. This book will introduce you to the revolutionary world of cryptocurrencies and beyond. Suitable for both beginners and intermediates. Some of the concepts you'll learn about: Starting off with an explanation for you to properly understand how the technology works Every necessary term is clearly explained and easy to navigate Pleasant to read with occasional ideas to keep in mind, see the bigger picture How the blockchain can be used to revolutionize the world Unbiased analysis & summaries Actual practical advice for those interested to get involved Learn more than the majority of beginners know about cryptocurrencies Separate PDF guide for free when you get the book ... and much more!
