    An introduction to the basics of blockchain technology. 
    Are you confused by the blockchain? 
    Do you know what it is and how it works? 
    Do you want to know how it can change the world? 
    Then, you’ve chosen the right book. 
    Blockchain technology is not new. In fact, it was introduced in 2009 with the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, but since then, things have moved on at a significant pace. These days, many industries are developing their own blockchain-based solutions, looking to replace their existing database and record-keeping systems with one that works faster and is far more secure. 
    In this book, you will learn:What blockchain isHow blockchain works – a brief overview and a more technical lookThe history of blockchain technology and BitcoinThe advantages and disadvantages of blockchain technologyHow blockchain works with the financial industryHow it works with other industriesHow decentralized apps and smart contracts workWhat the proof-of-work concept is and how it worksThe current and future use cases for the blockchainWhat Ripple and the R3 consortium areAnd much more 
    The blockchain has already changed the world in so many ways, and most of us aren’t even aware that the systems we’ve used every day have changed. Not every blockchain is decentralized; some still have a centralized intermediary. Not every blockchain is open-source. Banks, governments, and financial institutions are all maintaining control but in a more open, secure way that is far less open to fraud than previous financial transaction systems.

    A fascinating tour of creatures from the surface to the deepest ocean floor: this "miraculous, transcendental book" invites us to envision wilder, grander, and more abundant possibilities for the way we live (Ed Yong, author of An Immense World). A queer, mixed race writer working in a largely white, male field, science and conservation journalist Sabrina Imbler has always been drawn to the mystery of life in the sea, and particularly to creatures living in hostile or remote environments. Each essay in their debut collection profiles one such creature, including:     ·the mother octopus who starves herself while watching over her eggs,     ·the Chinese sturgeon whose migration route has been decimated by pollution and dams,     ·the bizarre, predatory Bobbitt worm (named after Lorena),     ·the common goldfish that flourishes in the wild,     ·and more.  Imbler discovers that some of the most radical models of family, community, and care can be found in the sea, from gelatinous chains that are both individual organisms and colonies of clones to deep-sea crabs that have no need for the sun, nourished instead by the chemicals and heat throbbing from the core of the Earth. Exploring themes of adaptation, survival, sexuality, and care, and weaving the wonders of marine biology with stories of their own family, relationships, and coming of age, How Far the Light Reaches is a shimmering, otherworldly debut that attunes us to new visions of our world and its miracles.    WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE in SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY  Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award One of TIME’s 10 Best Nonfiction Books of the Year •  A PEOPLE Best New Book  •  A Barnes & Noble and SHELF AWARENESS Best Book of 2022  •  An Indie Next Pick  •  One of Winter’s Most Eagerly Anticipated Books: VANITY FAIR, VULTURE, BOOKRIOT
