opensourceforu, Wednesday, July 3rd, 2024

'Blockchain is the backbone of cryptocurrencies. It has had a massive impact in many sectors, including finance, supply chains, healthcare, government, and media.' This statement in the 'about' of this book tells us what to expect in it.

The subtitle of this book is 'Inner workings of blockchain, from cryptography and decentralised identities, to DeFi, NFTs and Web3'. Its author Imran Bashir has an MSc in information security from Royal Holloway, University of London.
