A Beginner's Guide to Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies

The world gets more and more digitized every day. People buy things on the internet, trade
stocks online and work in a digital world. Overly, the industrial revolution 4.0 determines our
work life and free time. But many concepts are still hard to understand, especially for those
who do not work in IT. The book "Introduction to Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies", published
in January 2022 by Dr Gurvy Kavei with GRIN, explains the most important theories to
understand the digitized world and its opportunities.
Robots steered by artificial intelligence take over people's work in many places. With the
ongoing technological progress, it is hard to find a single modern organization not embracing
AI because it saves time and money and is more accurate. Today, blockchain technology has
become almost an insurmountable bedrock for business process automation, product
enhancement, analytic speed, and accuracy. It also provides excellent opportunities for
people outside the business world, foremost in generating wealth. "Introduction to
Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies" by Dr Gurvy Kavei gives essential tools to navigate the art and
practice of crypto mining, exchanges, trading, FinTech and some controversies around
regulation of cryptocurrencies.

Blockchain is democratic at the core, and in its way, it is corruption‐proof

Lately, the continuing rise of bitcoin on the international markets has made everyone aware
that cryptocurrencies are a serious development. Understanding these technologies is
becoming more and more critical for both private and business entrepreneurs. It also provides
great business opportunities for entrepreneurs willing to work with blockchain technology.
The book "Introduction to Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies" by Dr Gurvy Kavei points out
various entrepreneurial options. It explains where adaptation is happening in the world and
how anyone can navigate this crusade of wealth creation in a regulation‐compliant manner to
avoid criminalization and stereotyping. The book addresses people who want to enter the
world of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology for the first time. Furthermore, it
provides helpful information for people starting their careers in trading, mining, financial
investments, and policymakers and regulators in the financial sector.
