Descriere

Scopul acestei carti este acela de a prezenta o imagine de ansamblu asupra fenomenului criptomonedelor, cu accent pe cea mai cunoscuta dintre acestea, Bitcoin. Vom analiza fenomenul atat din punct de vedere al aspectelor tehnice, dar si din punctul de vedere al interactiunii dintre criptomonede si „lumea reala”. Fenomenul criptomonedelor este complex si intr-o permanenta evolutie, astfel incat aceasta carte nu isi propune sa fie un manual al investitorului in criptomonede, sau un tratat definitiv si exhaustiv privind acest subiect. Avand in vedere viteza cu care se modifica ecosistemul cripto, avansurile tehnologice si modificarile modului in care diverse state si autoritati de reglementare reactioneaza la acest fenomen, subiectul este unul dinamic si fluid, prin urmare scopul cartii este de a prezenta cateva concepte de baza privind criptomonedele si a modului in care acestea influenteaza mediul de securitate, in diverse aspecte ale acestuia. Vom utiliza pe parcursul cartii o serie de termeni in limba engleza, deoarece acestia sunt deja utilizati in limbajul din ecosistemul cripto si traducerea lor este fie imposibila (datorita noutatii conceptului nu exista termeni echivalenti in limba romana) sau ar face cartea dificil de citit de catre cei familiarizati deja cu denumirile in limba engleza.
