Step into Cryptoland, a plain-spoken exploration of the wild frontier where brilliance collides with folly, greed, and utopian dreams. Written by a seasoned financial sector expert, this book unpacks Bitcoin, blockchains, NFTs and the Metaverse in clear, story-driven language that cuts through jargon and hype. You'll journey past trillion-dollar bubbles, the darknet, Bored Apes, to a failed Fijian crypto paradise.
Cryptoland dissects day-trading fantasies, influencer-led schemes, DAO governance, and regulatory battles shaping the future of Web3, always asking the uncomfortable question: does any of this truly create value?
Wry, sceptical and meticulously researched, it's ideal for curious investors, policymakers, and crypto-enthusiasts who want a candid guided tour rather than a sales pitch.
If you've ever wondered whether crypto is revolutionary finance, elaborate casino, or something in between, Cryptoland gives you the tools and the stories to decide for yourself.
