The Infinite Machine - - How an Army of Crypto-Hackers is Building the Next Internet with Ethereum.
Everyone has heard of Bitcoin, but few know about the second-largest blockchsin, Ethereum, which has been heralded as the "next internet".
The story of Ethereum begins with Vitalik Buterin, a supremely gifted 19 year old autodidact who saw the promise of blockchain when the technology was in its early stages. He convinced a crack group of coders to join him in his quest to make a supercharged global computer.
The Infinite Machine introduces Buterin's ingenious idea and unfolds Ethereum's chaotic beginnings. It the explores the briliant innovation and reckless greed the platform - an infinitely adaptable foundation for experimentation and new applications - has unleashed and the consequences that resulted as the frenzy surrounding the Ethereum grew: increased regulatory scrutinity, incipient Wall Street interest, and the founding team's effort to get the platform to scale so it can eventually be accessible to masses.
Financial journalist & cryptocurrency expert Camila Russo details the wild & often hapless adventures of a team of hippie anarchists, reluctantly led by an ambivalent visionary, and lays out how this new for the intetnet will spur both transformation & fraud - turning some into millionaires and others into felons - and revoliutionize our ideas about money.
