Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书
这是一本扒BC的皮的书。 书的名字有点莫名其妙,上网查了查,来源于1958年的一部科幻片,Attack of the 50 Foot Woman,大概是美女遇到外星人,发生变异成了50英尺的巨人,报复负心人报复社会的扯淡故事。 作者David Gerard,自我介绍是个UNIX管理员 & 音乐记者。结合书名...

图书标签: 金融 计算机 比特币 技术
An experimental new Internet-based form of money is created that anyone can generate at home; people build frightening firetrap computers full of video cards, putting out so much heat that one operator is hospitalised with heatstroke and brain damage.
A young physics student starts a revolutionary new marketplace immune to State coercion; he ends up ordering hits on people because they might threaten his great experiment, and is jailed for life without parole.
Fully automated contractual systems are proposed to make business and the law work better; the contracts people actually write are unregulated penny stock offerings whose fine print literally states that you are buying nothing of any value.
The biggest crowdfunding in history attracts $150 million on the promise that it will embody “the steadfast iron will of unstoppable code”; upon release it is immediately hacked, and $50 million is stolen.
How did we get here?
David Gerard covers the origins and history of Bitcoin to the present day, the other cryptocurrencies it spawned including Ethereum, the ICO craze and the 2017 crypto bubble, and the attempts to apply blockchains and smart contracts to business. Plus a case study on blockchains in the music industry.
Bitcoin and blockchains are not a technology story, but a psychology story.
Remember: if it sounds too good to be true, it almost certainly is.
20#01 一本币圈吐槽笔记,从中本聪到Craig Wright到Vitalik黑了个遍。传统“区块链”的项目在capacity等方面的问题显而易见,而“非blockchain”的DLT项目即便技术问题能解决也难免多少有些为赋新词强说愁的尴尬。对于各种关键人物、项目背后的信息十分全面详细的梳理是这本书最有价值之处。后悔没有早点读到。
评分还挺好的一本书,对各种hacking的黑历史如数家珍,读完后对加密货币信心全无。
