Misleading title. Beginner book. Repetitive information.

I got this book as a trading guide for a crashing market which is what the title made it seem like. I figured I would get strategies for crypto trading in a bear market. instead I got a poorly narrated beginner guide to crypto currency. The book title in my opinion is false advertising and I feel cheated out of my money.

The narrator Tom Davis sounds like he does toy commercials and employee welcoming videos to a new company. He had a fake sounding voice that does not express the words written correctly and makes mistake after mistake. In one sentence he called Satoshi “Shitaki” for crying out loud!! Like the mushroom! How did they even allow this?! The tone he uses for each sentence makes no sense! He uses the same “ Batteries not included ” or “ Welcome to Company XYZ” sounding emotion in every sentence. It’s hard to follow because of this and it makes no sense. Robert Plank was pretty good however. I wish he Narrated throughout the 3 books. He expresses the sentences correctly and is easy to follow.

There is so much repetitive information in this book mainly about the blockchain technology and it’s uses and next to nothing about trading or strategies. A little over an hour of the book in the last segments goes over mining in detail which was very nice but nothing on actual trading and I feel this was false advertising.

This is my first negative review in 12 different books and to be honest I’m extremely disappointed by this one. This is not trading advice or a book on trading, this is information on cryptocurrency and mining and it should be named something along those lines.

This is a fantastic book for beginners or someone who wants to learn the benefits of crypto, its origins, mining and possible future uses and if that is you I recommend it. However, if you bought the book for the reasons I did, based on the title and you are a trader like me already then this book is probably not what you are looking for.

I honestly wish I could get my money back for this as I feel like I was tricked by the title and this book wasn’t exactly cheap.
