Digital currency & Blockchain Tech
We are on the cusp of development in the digital currency era. Although Bitcoin, as the most important digital currency, is sought after all over the world, it is only the tip of the iceberg of the huge application space of the open source system of blockchain. As the underlying and core technology of digital currency, blockchain technology has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life.
In this book, the author reveals the development process of blockchain technology and its characteristics of decentralization, trustlessness, scalability, anonymity, safety and reliability by introducing the operating mechanism behind Bitcoin, leading readers:
*Explore the origin of digital currency;
*Understand the history of the payment system and its changes;
*Understand how the Bitcoin network enables free and instant transfer of value;
*Understand the mining process of Bitcoin and how to invest in Bitcoin;
*Understand the operating mechanism of smart contracts and smart properties and their derivative applications;
*Understand how to effectively supervise digital currencies;
*Understand the impact of blockchain technology application on non-financial fields, sharing economy and even government roles.
The next stage of growth that digital currency faces is that it will be used in more fields. It is not only used for value transmission, but the blockchain technology behind it may profoundly affect the fields of finance, banking, payment, stock/equity trading, Internet of Things, and medical care in the medium and long term.
Only by mastering and rationally using blockchain technology, fully foreseeing and effectively solving the risks that may arise in the application of this technology, and establishing and strengthening the digital currency supervision mechanism, can we be prepared to respond to changes.
