À propos de cet audio

The technology likely to have the greatest impact on the future of the world economy has arrived, and it's not self-driving cars, solar energy, or artificial intelligence.

It's called the blockchain.

The first generation of the digital revolution brought us the Internet of information. The second generation - powered by blockchain technology - is bringing us the Internet of value: a new, distributed platform that can help us reshape the world of business and transform the old order of human affairs for the better.

Blockchain is the ingeniously simple, revolutionary protocol that allows transactions to be simultaneously anonymous and secure by maintaining a tamperproof public ledger of value. Though it's the technology that drives bitcoin and other digital currencies, the underlying framework has the potential to go far beyond these and record virtually everything of value to humankind, from birth and death certificates to insurance claims and even votes.

Why should you care? Maybe you're a music lover who wants artists to make a living off their art. Or a consumer who wants to know where that hamburger meat really came from. Perhaps you're an immigrant who's sick of paying big fees to send money home to loved ones. Or an entrepreneur looking for a new platform to build a business.

And those examples are barely the tip of the iceberg. This technology is public, encrypted, and readily available for anyone to use. It's already seeing widespread adoption in a number of areas. For example, forty-two (and counting) of the world's biggest financial institutions, including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Credit Suisse, have formed a consortium to investigate the blockchain for speedier and more secure transactions.

As with major paradigm shifts that preceded it, the blockchain will create winners and losers. And while opportunities abound, the risks of disruption and dislocation must not be ignored.

Don Tapscott, the bestselling author of Wikinomics, and his son, blockchain expert Alex Tapscott, bring us a brilliantly researched, highly listenable, and utterly foundational book about the future of the modern economy. Blockchain Revolution is the business leaders' playbook for the next decade and beyond.

Very informative

Overall very informative. Have some knowledge of the subject will help understand the content. A bit hard to follow at times due to length. But I do recommand it. Very rich in ideas.

Audio is not ideal format for learning Blockchain

The material in this book is not easily digestible by audiobook. There is too much new, abstract material for blockchain newbies like myself. The kindle format will allow readers to view images, graphs, highlight important concepts and re-read confusing topics more easily. I think you really have to visualize blockchain to understand it! Otherwise, kudos for the authors for putting together such amazing research and breaking it down for us.

Unbalanced and too rosy

I don't think it presents a balanced view on the subject. They only address a couple problems with the technology briefly near the end, but quickly explain it away. I think the book could have also benefited from more input from industry insiders with technical expertise to explain how blockchain should and should not be implemented.

Waste of time

Lots of high level talk, far fetched ideas, without detail. One example - totalitarian regimes in some parts of the world, do not recognize a person's land title; well, with block chain, we can encode that land title and problem over. While it will HELP, the reason that the land titles are unrecognized, is not because owner cannot prove its authenticity, but because the regime simply does not care to recognize it. I forced my self to listen to most of this book hoping it will get better but it was a waste of time.

One of the worst books I've ever read.

Highly repetitive. Very little technical information. And already highly out of date. I don't know who this book is for. it's just hype-building jargon.
