Crypto Confidential (Portfolio)
Friday, 12 July 2024

Nat Eliason wanted to make as much money as possible in the six months before his first child was born, and chose the crypto sector. Within a year, he'd made millions writing code holding hundreds of millions of dollars of other people's money. He'd been hacked. He'd sold a picture of a monkey for two hundred grand. He'd become an influencer. This book, subtitled "Winning and Losing Millions in the New Frontier of Finance", is his account of the unregulated world being built on the blockchain.

<ASIN:‎0753561239>

The book is a behind-the-scenes exposé of the bull runs and breakdowns, of getting rich, going broke, scamming and getting scammed— and how we can all be more educated participants during the inevitable next bull run.
