If you are looking for a book to illustrate what is the potential of Bockchain in future and how it can impact our life you just find your book. Buckle up and get ready for fast journey to the future could be introduced by Blockchain. Tapscotts did pretty good job to elaborate what is Blockchain and how it can effect our surroundings. The book starts with what is the Blockchain, how it have been started and what kind of problem it can tackle. As an example Tapscotts bring up the data breach problem and show even well known organizations are not immune, chief among them Ebay 145 millions user's data compromised and Sony 77 million users data compromised; which caused by centralizing data and make it vulnerable. Problem and roadblocks caused by current technology are discussed with proper example, afterward it clarified how Blockchain could be pretty good candidate to resolve those issues with dissent examples.
This book is go beyond reality and illustrated what could be possible with Blockchain technology. Some might call it too imaginary or unrealistic, however I enjoyed the book and got some idea. I could picture what could be the outcome of this revolutionizing technology. As a person with IT background and have good understanding about the technology in use within Bloackchain and the impediment we have in current infrastructure, I might take some explanation for granted and get along better than people with no IT background.
Problems and challenges that might be introduced by Blockchain technology have been discussed toward the end of the book. It predicated some issues are inevitable and recommend decision makers should not blame the technology for it's misuse.
Some changes predicted within the book had happened in a way or another and look like Blockchain have pass it's embryonic stage and it becoming self fulfilling prophecy.
