Reviews
"The authors ably explain highly technical information in layperson's terms, and the text is neither too dense nor too basic. Readers may pick this one up for the Bitcoin connection and find themselves fascinated with the blockchain's potential to change the world's financial systems for the better." -- Booklist "Blockchain represents nothing less than the second era of the internet, with the potential to fundamentally change the modern digital economy. The Truth Machine offers important insight and a concrete vision into the transformative potential of the blockchain from two leading thinkers in this nascent technology. This is a must-read for anyone looking to understand how the blockchain can help solve some of the most pressing social and economic issues of our time." --Don Tapscott, Executive Chairman, Blockchain Research Institute and co-author of Blockchain Revolution: How the Technology Behind Bitcoin is Changing Money, Business, and the World "With thoughtful and well researched analysis, The Truth Machine leads you through a history of cryptocurrencies and blockchains that reveals the path forward towards a decentralized economy, one in which opportunity and access are widely spread." -- Andreas M Antonopoulos, author of Mastering Bitcoin and The Internet of Money series " The Truth Machine is a brilliant, beautifully written guide to the blockchain revolution that is redefining "trust" for our increasingly globalized world." -- Hernando de Soto, President of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy, author of The Mystery of Capital "Casey and Vigna are among the blockchain and digital-currency sector's most important visionaries. They are shaping a new understanding of how we can gain greater personal control over our data, assets, identities and creations to forge a more inclusive, collaborative and innovative society." -- Imogen Heap, Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter and founder of Mycelia "Casey and Vigna have done it again! It turns out that digital currencies may only be the spark for the next major revolution in business and society. The implications of trust being the blockchain's real killer app cannot be ignored by any serious investor." -- "Downtown" Josh Brown, CEO of Ritholtz Wealth Management, star of CNBC's The Halftime Report "This unparalleled examination of the blockchain landscape will open people's eyes to how a decentralized information system can level the playing field for humanity." -- Mariana Dahan, founder and CEO, World Identity Network, first coordinator of The World Bank's Identification for Development (ID4D) Initiative "In The Truth Machine , Casey and Vigna describe, in vivid detail, both the theory and practice of the coming block-chain revolution, giving us a powerful technological roadmap to a more participatory future in the digital age." -- Jeremy Rifkin, author of The Zero Marginal Cost Society "[The] world...is at a digital and legal turning point. The 'truth,' Casey and Vigna show us, is that to move forward we must rethink how information, markets, and value work. A wonderful read--heartily recommended." -- Brett King, bestselling author of Augmented , host of the Breaking Banks Radio Show, "With thoughtful and well researched analysis, The Truth Machine leads you through a history of cryptocurrencies and blockchains that reveals the path forward towards a decentralized economy, one in which opportunity and access are widely spread." -- Andreas M Antonopoulos, author of Mastering Bitcoin and The Internet of Money series " The Truth Machine is a brilliant, beautifully written guide to the blockchain revolution that is redefining "trust" for our increasingly globalized world." -- Hernando de Soto, President of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy, author of The Mystery of Capital "Casey and Vigna are among the blockchain and digital-currency sector's most important visionaries.

A wonderful read--heartily recommended." -- Brett King, bestselling author of Augmented , host of the Breaking Banks Radio Show, "An in-depth, fair, and engaging account of a massive technological shift that affects everyone." -- Business Insider "References to bitcoin (the currency) and blockchain (the accounting ledger) are increasing at warp speed, and many of us are struggling to keep up. This book serves as a guide to this new economic order, designed to create a safer and fairer system for global transactions in part by cutting out the middleman (banks and government, for starters)." -- The Toronto Star "The authors ably explain highly technical information in layperson's terms, and the text is neither too dense nor too basic.

Synopsis
Views differ on bitcoin, but few doubt the transformative potential of Blockchain technology. The Truth Machine is the best book so far on what has happened and what may come along. It demands the attention of anyone concerned with our economic future. --Lawrence H. Summers, Charles W. Eliot University Professor and President Emeritus at Harvard, Former Treasury Secretary From Michael J. Casey and Paul Vigna, the authors of The Age of Cryptocurrency , comes the definitive work on the Internet's Next Big Thing: The Blockchain. Big banks have grown bigger and more entrenched. Privacy exists only until the next hack. Credit card fraud is a fact of life. Many of the "legacy systems" once designed to make our lives easier and our economy more efficient are no longer up to the task. Yet there is a way past all this--a new kind of operating system with the potential to revolutionize vast swaths of our economy: the blockchain. In The Truth Machine , Michael J. Casey and Paul Vigna demystify the blockchain and explain why it can restore personal control over our data, assets, and identities; grant billions of excluded people access to the global economy; and shift the balance of power to revive society's faith in itself. They reveal the disruption it promises for industries including finance, tech, legal, and shipping. Casey and Vigna expose the challenge of replacing trusted (and not-so-trusted) institutions on which we've relied for centuries with a radical model that bypasses them. The Truth Machine reveals the empowerment possible when self-interested middlemen give way to the transparency of the blockchain, while highlighting the job losses, assertion of special interests, and threat to social cohesion that will accompany this shift. With the same balanced perspective they brought to The Age of Cryptocurrency , Casey and Vigna show why we all must care about the path that blockchain technology takes--moving humanity forward, not backward., "Views differ on bitcoin, but few doubt the transformative potential of Blockchain technology.
