He explains what Bitcoin is, how it works, and how and why we're all transitioning to a digital economy as we speak.

* The importance of decentralization, trust-less commerce and cryptographic consensus.
* The humble origins of Bitcoin, as well as how it nearly died out, and how it went on to take over the world
* How monetary and financial policy is being revolutionized by the introduction of Bitcoin and other crypto-assets.

An essential and engaging review of Bitcoin, digital assets, and the new digital economy, Catching Up to Crypto is the hands-on and comprehensive introduction to crypto that investors, enthusiasts, the crypto-curious, and finance professionals have been waiting for.
