The Infinite Machine: How an Army of Crypto-hackers Is Building the Next Internet with Ethereum

El libro llego un día antes de lo esperado pero llego con una hoja dañada.

Das Buch ist sehr verständlich geschrieben (Fachwörter werden erklärt - Leute mit wenig technischem Hintergrund können das Buch verstehen) und folgt einem chronologischem Ablauf. Ich kann dieses Buch jedem empfehlen, den die Gründungsgeschichte von Ethereum interessiert.

The book is about the rise of crypto, and is obviously focused on Ethereum. It really reads like a novel, and you get a bit of a peak into this world of nerds, investors, visionaries and all other people involved. The successes, the failures and everything in-between.Don't expect to learn anything on how crypto actually works. There's great other books on that. I do think it helps to be a bit familiar with some of the terminology, but I don't think you miss a lot if you don't.One little aspect I liked a bit less: the story evolves around key figures in the industry. The book introduces a lot of names, and gets back to those later, but I had trouble keeping the names apart. A little help on the reader would have been appreciated (like "Then John Doe, the guy who did this or that...").

Having been a programmer back in the 80’s (using Turbo Pascal), and now being an investor in Cryptocurrencies, and more importantly. Having read “Bitcoin Billionaires”. I thought this book would be of interest to me as an Investor and provide me with some further knowledge.I was shocked and super pleasantly surprised to find that it is an amazing book, super fluid and easy to read, full off all the pertinent information, and in many ways a literary master piece. It made “Bitcoin Billionaires” look like it was written by a child in comparison.I highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in Cryptocurrencies, Finance in general, Blockchain Tech, or/and the Modern World!

Not a lot of books available on Ethereum. This was written well and easy to read. Some crypto books are a little too matter-of-fact and become a bit dull, but this was written more like a story.
