  The newest thing is to invest in cryptocurrencies. Some people call it gambling, others know what they are doing and increase their chances of wealth and an ROI. Which are you going to be? And what does all this have to do with ICO anyway? In this audiobook, you will learn new things you might have never thought of before.  
  Litecoin - Several cryptocurrencies are fighting to be first in line, and although Bitcoin is the largest, most expensive one at this moment, there may be other opportunities people have overlooked. Litecoin is one of those. With Litecoin, there are great possibilities. Hence the purpose of this guide: to enlighten you and show you the way regarding this currency. 
  Bitcoin Trading - People have been talking about it for a while now. They used to say it’s a scam, it’s for nerds, or it will disappear in a year or two. Well, now some of those skeptics have joined the mining and trading game themselves. 
  Bitcoin Tools - Aside from all the basic “bitcoin for beginners” books, this book shares a different perspective by looking at the specific tools you can use, such as blockchain and charting tools, to mine and buy bitcoin, and cash on it big time at the right time!  
  Bitcoin Business - The Bitcoin hype has blown up and it’s still a great opportunity to invest or buy cryptocurrencies. How long it will last, nobody knows. But if you know what you’re doing, you can definitely increase your income. This book is there to guide you to make the right decisions. It focuses specifically on the business side of it, and whether or not you can make a return on investment.

  1% Leadership - Master the Small...

  One of the most well-known and experienced cybersecurity leaders shares dozens of lessons and observations that anyone, at any stage of their career, can use to create a work culture of continuous improvement and strong leadership. Leadership development speaker & consultant Andy Ellis is the former CSO of Akamai, where he contributed to the creation of Akamai's billion‑dollar cybersecurity business. He now brings his speaking, consulting, and business knowledge to readers with 1% Leadership—based on the reality that real-world leadership is messy and complicated; it rarely fits into an acronym or a dogmatic overarching philosophy. Ellis says that there are no “irrefutable laws” of leadership or power; there is no secret. As a result, 1% Leadership does not provide one path to leadership—it provides dozens of practical lessons that anyone, at any stage of their career, can use continuously make tiny “1% at a time” improvements. 1% Leadership is a handy guidebook that business readers can regularly apply to identify blind spots, boost morale (both personal and among teams and organizations), and solve problems at work. Readers can spend a few minutes each Monday morning to focus on one lesson for their leadership development—perhaps that lesson only improves their performance by 1%; but it’s those accumulated 1% improvements that separate the best leaders from everyone else.  Lessons include: To engage in the present, be of two minds about the future.  Worrying about failure will make success even more unlikely. Only by engaging in the present with that worry set aside can we find the path to success. Four days of great work now are rarely more important than four months of good work down the road.  Show that long-term wellness matters. Performance development should be applied to every person on your team. Rather than treating the performance process as a way to identify and document poor performers, create a process that aims to improve and develop every person on your team.
