Blockchain, Web3 and Cryptocurrencies: An Exploration of Freedom Through Technology, (Hardcover)

Over the past fifteen years, blockchain has moved from technological curiosity to a cornerstone of global digital transformation. Yet its meaning remains clouded by myth, hype, and misunderstanding. This book cuts through all the noise.<p>Combining history, technology, sociology, and foresight, it offers a rigorous and accessible guide to blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and Web3. It traces the scientific foundations, including cryptography, game theory, and distributed consensus, and examines how decentralized systems challenge traditional models of trust, governance, and data ownership. It also explores the emerging convergence between blockchain and artificial intelligence, one of the most strategically significant developments of our time.</p><p>Intended for students, practitioners, policymakers, and informed general readers, this book does not seek to convert. It equips readers with conceptual tools to understand, evaluate, and engage critically with technologies that are already reshaping various fields, such as finance, logistics, energy, and organizational governance worldwide.</p>
