ISBN: 9798186473985 - the successful failure: how bitcoin lost as money and won as gold (6 resultados)

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - They've lied to you about Bitcoin. Both sides. The ones who call it a scam. The ones who call it the future. Two crowds shouting - and you, in the middle, still without an honest answer. THE SUCCESSFUL FAILURE is the calm voice in between. No jargon. No hype. No one selling you dreams. Harvey Brooks takes you from January 3, 2009 - the day a stranger switched on a computer and lit a fuse called Bitcoin - all the way to the million-dollar prophecy that keeps people up at night. Along the way he answers one question, head-on, without flinching: has Bitcoin actually failed The answer isn't a slogan. It's a two-sided truth: Bitcoin failed at the one job it was built for - being money you spend - and, by failing, stumbled into something nobody quite expected. A new kind of gold. Digital, scarce, and still figuring out what it wants to be when it grows up. In this book you'll discover: - Why you still can't buy a coffee with it - and why that was never really the point- How its failure as currency is exactly what turned it into 'digital gold'- The five warning signs that separate a real opportunity from a trap- What the people who never got burned actually do differently- Why governments can't decide whether to ban it or tax it - and what that tells you- The real math behind the 'one million dollars' prophecy, and why it matters less than you think- A hidden message, planted one chapter at a time, that comes together in the final pages This isn't a book that tells you what to buy. It's a book that helps you think clearly about money, greed, fear, and the two beasts everyone carries inside - so that whatever you decide to do with Bitcoin, you decide it with your eyes open. This book is for informational and educational purposes only. It is not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Harvey Brooks writes about money for regular people, in plain words. He roots for no one - not the dream-sellers, not the scam-shouters. Just a cool head, far from the noise. …
