  • Understanding the Blockchain Economy: An

    Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Understanding the Blockchain Economy: An

    Book SynopsisOffering the first scholarly analysis of the economic nature of blockchains and the formation of the blockchain economy, this timely book explores the future of global capitalism. Applying the institutional economics of Ronald Coase and Oliver Williamson, the authors highlight how blockchains are poised to reshape the nature of firms, governments, markets and civil society. Chapters apply basic economic principles to explore blockchains and distributed ledger technologies through the framework of institutional economics. The book suggests ways in which cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin may develop further in the future, bringing us back to a barter economy which removes the need for a third person in economic transactions. Outlining a ledger-centric view of the economy, the authors explore how blockchains and dehierarchalisation will reduce the demand for government regulation. Institutional economists and scholars will greatly appreciate the thorough analysis of the development of institutional cryptoeconomics and insight into the future of blockchains that this book offers. Computer and technology scientists will also find this book to be a valuable read, as well as those working specifically in the blockchain industry. Table of ContentsContents 1. Introduction 2. The institutional economics of blockchain 3. The Universal Turing Institution 4. The microfoundations of ledgers 5. Money, dequity, and the barter economy of the future 6.

  • Mr. Nakamoto

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisEn octubre de 2008, alguien conocido con el nombre de Satoshi Nakamoto publicó un documento en el que describía un sistema de dinero electrónico entre iguales llamado Bitcoin, alojado en un servidor arcano plagado de Cypherpunks. Nadie en la comunidad había oído hablar de él, y justo cuando la gente empezaba a preguntarse quién era, desapareció. A medida que pasaban los años y se hacía evidente el alcance de su creación, la verdad sobre su identidad se convirtió en el mayor misterio sin resolver de nuestro tiempo.En esta nueva obra, Benjamin Wallace emprende una fascinante investigación para desenmascarar a la figura detrás de esta revolucionaria moneda digital. Lo que comenzó como una utopía marginal en los años 90 ?crear una divisa libre del control gubernamental y bancario? se transformó, tras la desaparición de su creador, en un fenómeno financiero que atrajo especulación desenfrenada, oportunistas y estafadores, abriendo un abismo entre los ideales originales del Bitcoin y su controvertida reputación actual. Pero quién es Nakamoto? Quienquiera que sea, se puede afirmar a día de hoy que ha inventado una de las tecnologías más importantes del nuevo siglo. Y Nakamoto es multimillonario: su monedero Bitcoin contiene una fortuna intacta de once cifras esperando a ser reclamada.Con el mismo estilo narrativo cautivador que le convirtió en autor superventas del New York Times, Benjamin Wallace presenta un relato de periodismo de investigación apasionante. Siguiendo pistas de Londres a Oslo y a Los Ángeles, de la costa de Australia al desierto de Arizona, lleva a los lectores a través de un recorrido la galería de los sospechosos habituales: desde genios benévolos, criptógrafos o polímatas hasta un equipo secreto de la Agencia de Seguridad Nacional. Con precisión forense y maestría narrativa, Wallace nos acerca al corazón del misterio Nakamoto, cuestionando incluso la naturaleza misma del enigma.
