Great operational reference for developers。 I learned very much but i by no means feel this book provided mastery of Blockchain。 It doesn't even have that capacity for the most intelligent reader。 It's a great starting point if you're already an IT professional。 Great operational reference for developers。 I learned very much but i by no means feel this book provided mastery of Blockchain。 It doesn't even have that capacity for the most intelligent reader。 It's a great starting point if you're already an IT professional。 。。。more

This is the most comprehensive book out there , just beware of other cheap imitations out there with the same name

Ed Dobson

Simply the best out there。 The blockchain bible!One advice for the readers : beware of the cheap imitations with the same name。

This book is definitely a blockchain ultimate reference。 Using it as a reference book at work。 A big thank you to the author for his contribution to the discipline。

Nicely written。 Explains many latest topics。 I especially liked the consensus protocols chapter。 I am also using it as a course text as it has presentation slides and review questions for students too。 Mastering Blockchain: A deep dive into distributed ledgers, consensus protocols, smart contracts, DApps, cryptocurrencies, Ethereum, and more, 3rd Edition Nicely written。 Explains many latest topics。 I especially liked the consensus protocols chapter。 I am also using it as a course text as it has presentation slides and review questions for students too。 Mastering Blockchain: A deep dive into distributed ledgers, consensus protocols, smart contracts, DApps, cryptocurrencies, Ethereum, and more, 3rd Edition 。。。more

Using this to teach blockchain to my team at work。 The book also comes with academic slides for all chapters and review questions Which is available On github。 Really useful。

So far so good! Read a few chapters and found it very useful。 It’s permanently on my desk now as a reference!

Also read the 2nd edition , this is even better! Really good and comprehensive coverage of all topics。

The blockchain bible。 A must read。

Mastering Blockchain is a well written introduction to Blockchain for whoever is interested in the subject and has no real knowledge of what is happening under the hood。 The concepts are clearly explained and often come supported by nice diagrams and screenshots。 All the basics required to fully understand Blockchain are discussed by the author, including math and cryptography。 I particularly enjoy the fact that key terms are described with a couple of sentences, in a glossary like style。For tho Mastering Blockchain is a well written introduction to Blockchain for whoever is interested in the subject and has no real knowledge of what is happening under the hood。 The concepts are clearly explained and often come supported by nice diagrams and screenshots。 All the basics required to fully understand Blockchain are discussed by the author, including math and cryptography。 I particularly enjoy the fact that key terms are described with a couple of sentences, in a glossary like style。For those that are just interested in understanding what Blockchain is, mind that you need to fully understand mathematical and crypto concepts。 This could lead to some headache。 A good read, as long as you fully understand what you get from it (no code to dev Blockchain applications; math and cyrptography)。 。。。more

El libro más completo y técnico que leí hasta el momento sobre Blockchain, aborda a detalle la arquitectura blockchain sus variantes, las criptomonedas, hace mucho incapié en el cifrado, incluso con ejemplos, las diferencias entre los altcoins y al final habre un abanico de posibilidades de implementación de blockchain。Si eres desarrollador o ingeniero con buenos conocimientos de matemáticas y quieres conocer todo el ecosistema blockchain, este libro si es para ti。Si no tienes bases en matemátic El libro más completo y técnico que leí hasta el momento sobre Blockchain, aborda a detalle la arquitectura blockchain sus variantes, las criptomonedas, hace mucho incapié en el cifrado, incluso con ejemplos, las diferencias entre los altcoins y al final habre un abanico de posibilidades de implementación de blockchain。Si eres desarrollador o ingeniero con buenos conocimientos de matemáticas y quieres conocer todo el ecosistema blockchain, este libro si es para ti。Si no tienes bases en matemáticas, criptgrafía, programación, sistemas distribuidos。。。 deberías repasar un poco antes de leerlo, es muy técnico。 。。。more

This is a very technical book about blockchain (NOT just Bitcoin), and the down-to-the-code level content is excellent。Do not expect coverage of higher-level issues as that is superficial at best。

Sean

This is a big book that goes into a lot of the details about bitcoin, ethereum, and other cryptocurrency projects。 At times the book is unnecessarily detailed, showing output screens from the installation of various programs, for example。 At other times, the book doesn't explain concepts well, such as going on and on about contracts without sufficient explanation of what contracts are and how it differs from the simple buying and selling of bitcoin。 Still, the breadth of this book is impressive This is a big book that goes into a lot of the details about bitcoin, ethereum, and other cryptocurrency projects。 At times the book is unnecessarily detailed, showing output screens from the installation of various programs, for example。 At other times, the book doesn't explain concepts well, such as going on and on about contracts without sufficient explanation of what contracts are and how it differs from the simple buying and selling of bitcoin。 Still, the breadth of this book is impressive as it covers quite a lot of ground。The book is a little dated as it was written prior to the bull run of 2017。 。。。more

I didn't like it, the name is "mastering blockchain" and it is for beginners, it has a lot of definitions, read this book is like read wikipeadia。 The name of the book should be "introduction to blockchain" I didn't like it, the name is "mastering blockchain" and it is for beginners, it has a lot of definitions, read this book is like read wikipeadia。 The name of the book should be "introduction to blockchain" 。。。more

This book is the most comprehensive book available on blockchains。 Also being used a textbook at many training institutes, colleges and universities around the world。 I highly recommend it!

Highly technical!

Georgia

This is the best comprehensive book ive read about blockchain technology。

Kashif

The first book some should read on blockchains。 Contains the fundamentals of how Bitcoin led to a revolution which may be the next GPT (General Purpose Technology) like electricity and the internet。Covers the history, different types of blockchains, consensus protocols, potential uses and points of improvement。Its a good book, but seems to be written hastily in some areas。Recommended

Yury

Good introduction for the beginners。With a some degree of hands-on involved

Juha

One of the better books on the subject matter。 It actually goes to the nitty gritty and just doesn't do the same sales pitch as every other book about how the blockchain technology will revolutionise things。 One of the better books on the subject matter。 It actually goes to the nitty gritty and just doesn't do the same sales pitch as every other book about how the blockchain technology will revolutionise things。 。。。more
