This book explains how blockchain technology will transform the Internet and our usage of it. Don Tapscott, a leading theorist of the digital age, discusses a significant technological shift that will revolutionize business and other sectors through blockchain, the technology behind Bitcoin. While the current Internet excels in collaboration and communication, it has serious flaws in commerce and privacy. Blockchain enables peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries like banks, ensuring user anonymity while maintaining a permanent public record of all transactions. This means personal information remains private and secure, while activities are transparent and incorruptible, relying on mass collaboration stored in code on a digital ledger. Trust is embedded in the system, reducing the need for traditional trust. Although many blockchain applications involve digital currency, Bitcoin is just one example. The technology can also store legal documents, such as deeds and licenses. This "World Wide Ledger" facilitates smart contracts, decentralized organizations, and transactions among devices. As the Internet of Everything emerges, a Ledger of Everything is essential. Tapscott, alongside his son Alex, posits that blockchain will define a new era of prosperity across various fields, including finance, healthcare, education, and governance.
