Summary

Cryptocurrencies are the biggest opportunity of your lifetime, and the crypto gold rush is only just beginning....

'The future of money is digital currency.' 'Bitcoin is a technological tour de force.' (Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft)

Blockchain technology and the cryptocurrencies it enables are being described by some people as the biggest thing since the Internet, but very few people understand it or the opportunities it brings. Enter this down-to-earth guide to understanding what cryptocurrencies are, why it matters and how to make money from them.

This audiobook is for everyone who has heard of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and wants to learn more - and make money on the back of it. Believe it or not, if you bought $1,000 of Bitcoin in 2010, you would now be worth over $220m! This has left the public stunned. People around the world are asking, 'What on earth is a crypto?', 'Should I buy some Bitcoin?', 'How do I even buy some cryptocurrencies?', 'Isn't this just one big bubble?' and more.

Siam Kidd is one of the world's leading authorities on how to safely invest in cryptocurrencies. He runs The Realistic Trader, home to the world's best crypto investing course for beginners, with a community of followers from around the globe. 

He created this book to lift up the crypto bonnet in order to reveal, explain and illustrate everything you really need to know about this fascinating market. You'll learn:

  • What all this crypto stuff is
  • Why it exists
  • Where this industry is going in the future
  • How it will positively change your life
  • The pitfalls and errors every newbie makes
  • And, importantly, how to safely play in this market if you so wish to have a dabble with some risk capital! 

This book does all that without boring you with mathematics and 'Geek Speak'.

I went from knowing basically nothing to feeling I could hold a decent conversation about it!

Well worth a listen. Down to earth and plain straight-talking language. Great book and I will be recommending it to family & friends!

No BS book, just facts .

Easy to follow, good advice. If you manage to write it all down, it's a good start in crypto.

Nothing new here, 5 hour advert for the author

Nice voice but he narrates as if he’s only reading the material for the first time, or doesn’t understand it. Spends much of the book scoffing at “amateur dabblers”, despite the fact the material presented is so rudimentary it could not be intended for anybody else. He uses anecdotes to illustrate his teaching points, but the majority of these seem solely intended to point out his supposed successes, interspersed with some strategic faux-deprication for good measure. You half-expect him to end every chapter with a Partridge-esque “And needless to say, I had the last laugh!”

There are no new revelations here, but he handily signposts his online video course in case you might actually want to learn something useful (ka-ching!) If you can handle the idea of him bragging at you for several more hours, then I wish you well.

Brilliant audiobook

Even though this book is a couple of years old now, it is still FULL of highly relevant information and anecdotes delivered in a light and easy to comprehend manner. Fascinating and exciting and Siam narrates with ease in a friendly and down to earth way. Highly recommended.

Confidence Trickster

Beware the author is either too daft to realise he is misleading people or is deliberately doing so for profit. He will cost others, ruin some and I am appalled. Please consult an independent financial advisor and keep well clear of this scam, Thank you

Simply brilliant

Siam Kidd’s brutal honesty and wisdom is clear to see or rather listen too.

He’s approach to Cryptos is logical and sensible, something that is well needed in this space.

Amazing insight into the brain of Siam Kidd

Brilliant book by Siam, encapsulates everything he stands for. From Cryptos to trading to teaching the world about finance and the economy, all is plain English.

Also a very Interesting theory on who Satoshi is! I think you may be right Siam!

Excellent for beginners

Excellent book for beginners.
If you’re unsure about cryptocurrency, then this book can help you understand how and why they are important.

I am going to buy this book for all my family, so that they can understand what I’m doing a little better and realise the importance of getting into the market.

It’s a bit of an old book now in this space, but although many of the things have changed a bit, the main points are still very relevant.
