Preface

Tokenomics is the economy of this new world. This is a no-holds-barred, in-depth exploration of the way in which we can participate in the blockchain economy. The reader will learn the basics of Bitcoin, blockchains and tokenomics, what the very first ICO was and how over a period of 5 years, various projects managed to raise the enormous sums of money they did. It then provides insights from ICO experts and looks at what the future holds. By comparing the past, current, and future of this technology, the book will inform anyone, whatever motivates their interest.

The crypto shift of blockchains, ICOs and tokens is much more than just buying bitcoins, creating tokens or raising millions in minute in an ICO. It is a new paradigm shift from centralized to decentralized, from closed to open and from opaqueness to transparency. ICOs and the creation of tokens during the craze of 2017 needed a lot of preparation, an understanding of cryptocurrencies, and of emerging legal frameworks but this has spurred a new movement to tokenize the world.

The author gives an unbiased, authoritative picture of the current playing field, exploring the token opportunities and provides a unique insight into the developing world of this tokenized economy. This book will nourish hungry minds wanting to grow their knowledge in this fascinating area.
