The Truth About Crypto: A Practical, Easy-to-Understand Guide to Bitcoin, Blockchain, NFTs, and Other Digital Assets by Ric Edelman

A straightforward, practical guide to the newest frontier in investment strategy—crypto—from #1 New York Times bestselling author and personal finance expert Ric Edelman. Blockchain and bitcoin are here to stay—and as the Bank of England stated, this new technology could “transform the global financial system.” No wonder PWC says blockchain technology will add $2 trillion to the world’s $80 trillion economy by 2030. Indeed, blockchain technology and the digital assets it makes possible are revolutionary, the most profound innovation for commerce since the invention of the internet. And yet, the average investor—and the investment advisors who manage two-thirds of all their money—aren’t aware of all this, or of the incredible investment opportunities now available. Fortunately, Ric Edelman, one of the most influential experts in the financial field, shows investors how they can engage and thrive in today’s new investment marketplace. Featuring the prophetic insights you’d expect from one of most acclaimed financial advisors, The Truth About Crypto is fun to read and easy to understand—and most importantly gives readers the sound, practical advice we all need to succeed with this new asset class. Best of all, Edelman shows how blockchain works, the difference between digital currency and digital assets, and a comprehensive look at every aspect of the field. This book is a must-read guide if you want to achieve investment success today. Read more
This was not a pump and dump where the author wanted us all to buy bitcoin and then sell his, but is a wide ranging, balanced view of digital assets. He covered the technology, the bitcoin network, investing in digital assets, NFTs, and getting started. Pretty much everything you need to know to get your foot in the digital asset door. I like that he covered some of the downsides of digital assets as well as the upsides. I particularly liked he only recommended investing 1% of your net worth in digital assets. This felt like a reasonable amount given the volatility in the digital asset space. I personally still worry about things like regulation and losing my encryption keys (and therefore the whole asset), but author does a good job explaining those risks and how to mitigate somewhat. I will never understand the value of NFTs but that is probably just me.
