Firstly, the book is surprisingly short. Considering how broad the world of blockchain is, I find surprising that the author didn't go to great length and explore the topic extensively.
Secondly, it's boring. The language used is averagely poor; perhaps it's better if developers develop, and writers write books.
Thirdly, it lacks depth. Considering the amount of information available on blockchain, it would've been nice to have more data and graphs to back up what expressed in the book.
Spoiler: if you write a review of the book and email the author, you'll receive an exclusive (?) NFT designed for the readers. Guess what? I didn't even bother.
Luckily I read this book off Amazon Kindle through a free trial; I wouldn't bother spending any money buying it.
The first one is blockchain fundamentals. What surprises me is blockchain myths. The topic like Quantum computer vs. Cryptocurrencies, Encrypting sensitive data on the blockchain it's easy to attack or not, Recover system from errors, all subjects are interesting.
The second part is about applying blockchain technology to enterprises or creating a new project (A lot of frameworks in this part).
The last part is a case studies about implementing blockchain technology in the real sector. The author is CEO & Founder of Web3 Labs.
A fantastic primer on this ground-breaking technology
Blockchain, cryptocurrencies and NFTs have been the talk of the town this year, but until I read this book I had no idea of what the implications of these so called Web3 technologies were.
In reading this book I gained a really good understanding of not only where these technologies came from, but also why they’re such a big deal. I particularly liked how the author framed the future at points in the book making it easier to conceptualise what are future could look like with them.
He also lays out a helpful framework for how to approach adoption of them in a real world setting, and why it’s not just another new technology in that regard.
I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to scratch beneath the surface of this new technology.
