Expert financial guide to understand the technology, potential, and disruptive effects of crypto

In The Little Book of Bitcoin, founder and co-managing partner of SkyBridge Capital Anthony Scaramucci delivers a comprehensive guide to understand disruption in the financial industry as a result of the emergence and increasing prominence of digital asset technology. Drawing on his involvement in the Skybridge Bitcoin Fund which has $310 million in assets under management, this book runs the gambit from basic concepts all the way to implications of decentralized finance on the financial industry and society as a whole.

In this book, readers will learn about:

• Hashes, blockchains, and mining, and how these three processes sync up like an orchestra to make global participation in crypto possible
• Bitcoin as digital gold, and its similarities and differences to other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum
• Trading different cryptocurrencies, both popular and lesser known, through centralized platforms like Binance and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms like Uniswap
• Promising technology to facilitate anonymized legitimacy called "zero knowledge proof" and how it works

The Little Book of Bitcoin is an essential up-to-date guide to digital assets and associated technologies for all individuals, from hedge fund managers to newcomer retail investors, seeking to understand and prepare for a new world of finance.
