The story of cryptocurrency is a history of the modern world reflected in technology. It is based on the different narratives that have shaped the economic and political reality of a world spinning out of control. It is also the story of a financial revolution that carries the seeds of its own destruction. Once intended as a peer-to-peer medium of payment, crypto has today morphed almost exclusively into a speculative investment asset. How can we decode crypto, learn from its mistakes, and predict what the future holds for this new currency? In Popping the Crypto Bubble, we uncover the truth about the technology behind cryptocurrency, its political ideations and the narratives that drive the biggest economic bubble in the history of mankind. A bubble waiting to explode, and already exploding.

Donny Rice

Penetrating critique of crypto, but obvious signs it was rushed

Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

If you don't mind copy errors every couple of pages and a couple portions that feel a little underbaked, this is a most excellent book. I hope they can come out with a second edition that fixes these minor problems to an otherwise great read. Very well researched and generally remains factual. At times, it suddenly jumps from analysis to editorial, but I think everyone interested in crypto (whether for or against) should read it.

Excellent historical coverage of money

Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2022

This book is very comprehensive. The history lessons were very insightful. This book has made me a better investor for sure. I highly recommend it to all current investors or people thinking of getting into investing. I also recommend it to all elected officials at every level from city council to the president.

Very insightful and well researched

Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2022

This book explains very well concepts relating to cryptocurrency and related topics that make it easy to understand. I especially like the section on NFT's. The authors broke it down and explained it in such a way that I really understand NFT's now. I've read articles on NFT's from major magazine and newspapers but this book did a much better job explaining how they worked better than anything I've come across. If you want to understand more about Crypto this is the book to read

Good insight into the development of current digital currencies.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 27, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is the book to read to understand blockchain technology, cryptocurrencies and other crypto-assets as past and future of financial technology.

Finally not a marketing project but a detailed documentary-like an explanation of crypto space's past, current and future. Almost like a policy document that has been written by engineers to be read by everyone.

Also, there is a well-researched history of previous bubbles, which some I wasn't aware of.

Make sure you have read it, if you wonder about investing in crypto or start mining bitcoin.

A much needed tour of an insane world.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 23, 2022

Verified Purchase

The authors' expertise on the issues in the book shine through like a beacon of light in the dark.

This book has become more relevant than ever as the crypto bubble begins to permeate traditional financial systems. The comparison with historical financial bubbles is excellent. The break down of technical issues surrounding blockchains is very clear.

No matter your current understanding of crypto, this is your one stop shop. A page turner.

Complete, Comprehensive Crypto Coverage

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 22, 2022

Verified Purchase

While the conclusion is obvious from the intro, the book is well measure, comprehensive and incredibly detailed. Giving insight into the technology, market forces and laying bare the emperor's wardrobe.

I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the go to text for technical, socio economic and historical references going forward such is the breadth and depth of the work. 10/10 can't recommend enough.

Fascinating

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 17, 2022

Verified Purchase

Really enjoyed the detail.

There are some things that are factually wrong. Not all NFTs point to data held off-chain. Not all smart contracts imply irreversible processes. Not all DAOs cede control to founders. This betrays that there is more than a little bias in the writing which it really doesn’t need to make its case.

Still very much a recommended read though.

On a mundane level the book was slightly spoiled by the horrendous number of typos and grammatical errors. Feels a bit rushed and under proofread. I’m sure that will be fixed though.
