    Cryptocurrency - Recognize Scams...

    This book consists of two titles, related to bitcoin and altcoins: 
    Title 1 - The history of Bitcoin is both fascinating and complex. Developed by an anonymous group of mathematicians, Bitcoin emerged in 2008 with the intention of becoming "virtual gold," and its first software was released in early 2009 during the peak of the U.S. recession. Recognizing the need for long-term value, similar to gold, its creators capped the supply at 21 million Bitcoins. Bitcoin mining, the process by which new Bitcoins are generated, involves "miners" using specialized software to solve intricate mathematical problems, earning Bitcoins as a reward. Bitcoin has dominated the cryptocurrency world for so long that "crypto" and "Bitcoin" are often used interchangeably. 
    Title 2 - In this book, I'll introduce you to the world of blockchains, exploring what they are, how they came about, their applications, and the various topics that surround them. It's not surprising that the technology behind blockchains is unfamiliar to many; it seems to be known mainly by those in the financial sector. This makes sense, as that's where the technology originated and where it continues to thrive. 
      
    But that unfamiliarity with blockchains will soon come to an end. This book will acquaint you with blockchains and provide the information you need to understand this promising technology. I assure you that the content here is thoroughly researched and carefully considered, all to equip you with the knowledge you need.
