Publisher's Synopsis
We began the project of this book with a vision: to offer the reader an overview of why Bitcoin matters, why many of us are fascinated with Bitcoin, all through an easy read, based on short and entertaining stories. We were looking for something that we could share with family, friends and co-workers, something that they could actually read: a synthesis that they could understand in a small space of time, without feeling obliged or having to spend time exploring here and there. It needed to be engaging, drawing on analogies with the known world to make the underlying technology understandable to most.
