Review

"When Bitcoin first made its debut into the world years ago, if you were like me, you probably thought it was just the dumbest thing you have ever heard in your life - digital money?! What the heck is that all about? Who will even care?! Fast forward to today and guess what, we are both incredibly wrong. I know I wished I invested some money into it when it first came out, instead I shrugged it off and kept going on in my life. What a mistake! But I have learnt from it and now I am looking to understand what this is all about.
If you are a beginner like myself, "Blockchain Technology Simplified" will be an amazing primer for you. I can finally go on with my life and having appropriate conversations with others where I don't just stand there looking like an idiot since I had no idea what they were talking about. Now, I actually am the other to initiate these conversations in attempts to hopefully find others that are keen on investing and pick their brains a bit so I can invest in them myself. Thank you James Parker, you have created an amazing piece of material! Keep it up!" -Johnson

"Blockchain Technology Simplified by James Parker is a book that has been put together with the final consumer in mind - which is the reader. I have had so many other finance and technology books confuse me with all of their jargon and wording that I just give up reading them halfway through because it just seemed so pointless to continue going on. However, this book definitely put me at ease and I have a much better understanding about Bitcoin and Blockchain. I can finally start in conversations with others whenever this subject arises and not just nod my head alongside others since I had no clue what the were talking about before. I would highly recommend others to get this book if you don't want to be confused and you actually want to understand what this future of finance is all about." -Grace

Believe me, we have had arguments and fights about this. I jumped on Amazon and looked for a book with may help both of us get a better idea on what we were getting ourselves into and fell upon this book. After reading it through and letting it absorb in, we can finally say with more confidence that this should be an investment that we should be at least look into further. We have a better understanding of what we are getting into. The author did a great job of clarifying the subject for us dumb people." -William Sutton
