Inhaltsangabe

This book will help you to understand the new and emerging world of blockchain and cryptocurrencies from an Australian layman's perspective. There is a common belief in the public that cryptocurrency is 'everything one does not understand about money combined with everything one does not understand about computers'.

This book covers a wide range of topics including the history of money, cryptography, the origin and purpose of blockchain, the origin and purpose of digital currency, current uses and potential application, blockchain and its rivals, Australian taxation, purchasing goods and services, mining and trading, hacking and scams, how countries view cryptocurrencies, how banks are reacting (is it a bubble ?) and, finally, closing thoughts from the authors.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Brian McNicol started his working life as an accountant, then as a self-employed financial planner and tax consultant before entering government for a six-week project which lasted 19 years. Brian followed his father into the accounting profession and was exposed to the stock market at an early age, purchasing shares in companies that his father worked for, or on recommendations from his father's stockbroking advisers. Brian dabbled in the share market for many years building a portfolio of shares ranging from Blue Chip to Penny Dreadful. He has spoken at a number of large events but prefers talking to small groups or one-on-one with other investors. Brian has a wealth of experience and has made mistakes along the way. Ask him about negative gearing and interest rates of 18 per cent. He has spoken at a number of large events but prefers talking to small groups or one-on-one with other investors.
