Whether you are brand spanking new to bitcoin and crypto or already understand the basics and want to expand your knowledge, this is the book for you! “Mastering the Basics” is a one-stop guide to help you immediately go from “crypto curious” to “crypto competent.”
We know how confusing bitcoin and crypto looks to the uninitiated. The potential is massive and world-changing, but it's intimidating and you don't know where to start.
That’s why we wrote this step-by-step guide in simple, plain-English terms that anyone can grasp. After completing this book, you will have a comprehensive working knowledge of the concepts and technologies that make digital assets possible.
We’ll take away the mystery and empower you with the knowledge and ability to understand bitcoin and profitably buy, sell, secure, and trade cryptos with ease.
This is incredibly valuable knowledge taught by two of the most respected experts in the space with over a decade long track record of success. With one book you can equip yourself with the expertise that only a tiny fraction of people alive today possess.
There’s no time like the present to get started and get savvy about the greatest opportunity in history for financial success and personal freedom. It starts here. It starts today. What are you waiting for?
Interview with Charlie Shrem
So what’s the underlying message of the book?
The underlying message of the book is to focus on the “why”. So many people over the last 10 years have just focused on how do we make the price go up? And because of that, the underlying message of “why we got into blockchain technology?”, “why Bitcoin?”, “why crypto?” has been completely lost in time.
So Mike and I decided to put out the simplest, best explanation of WHY and HOW Bitcoin and crypto works, and how all the pieces fit together. So when you spend the time, spend the day, and go through our book, you’ll come out of it having a very deep understanding of the landscape and you will be able to ask the right questions and act intelligently after that.
The genre of the book:
I would say, it’s a masterclass or entry-level for crypto. The genre is not like fiction or anything like that, but I would say it’s similar to like O’Reilly mastering the basics type of course.
One of the most exciting things I like about the book that I want the whole world to know is we really focused on not using complex words or jargon that other books in crypto just kind of expect you to know what they are. We really break everything down into terms and ideas that you’re likely already familiar with.
A few key points of the book that I’d like included in the press release:
Basically all these things that we talked about before. I would also include that there is a section after each chapter called Key Takeaways which give you a concise summary of each chapter to help you review and grasp the critical concepts. Each chapter also includes ‘Charlie’s thoughts’ which gives you further insight into my mind as one of the first people in this industry and will help you cut through any confusion and noise and show you where the sector is heading and why.
What about the book that makes me so excited?
I just like how the book can perfectly stand on it’s own, and everyone who has read it enjoys it and understands how everything works.
Interview with Michael Kimelman
What is the underlying message of your book?
That financial empowerment begins with knowledge. And that this new industry/paradigm is creating massive changes in the traditional financial system...which also creates massive opportunities for those that understand. And most importantly, ANYONE can understand this the way we presented it. We take away all the mystery and complexity by presenting the concepts in a straightforward and easy to digest manner, giving you a strong foundation to invest with confidence and converse with even the savviest crypto enthusiast.
What genre would you describe your book as?
Non fiction business? Personal finance? Investing?
What's ONE exciting thing about your book you want the whole world to know?
Absolutely ANYONE can understand and profit from this. This is the greatest wealth building and preservation opportunity in a generation. And we are in the early innings of this transition/technology. Blackrock, the largest asset manager in the world with $10 Trillion in assets, just announced this Fall that they're moving into crypto and offering it to their clients, so it's definitely not too late for the everyday person/investor to learn the basics and become a confident/competent investor in the space.
Briefly describe a few key points from your book that you’d like included in your press release (for fiction, these can be plot points that may entice readers; for nonfiction, these can be major topics covered).
-The history of cryptocurrencies
-Why they are necessary
-How to buy and sell crypto
-What exchanges to use
-How to safely store your crypto
-What is mining
-Taxes & Regulations (how crypto is treated)
-What are NFTs
-What is 'Web3.0'
-Over any 3 year period, Bitcoin and Ethereum have vastly outperformed any other asset out there.
-Studies have shown adding just 1% bitcoin to an investment portfolio dramatically beats a comparable portfolio without crypto.
-Bear Markets have historically been a great time to invest in crypto. This book will remove the mystery and empower you with the knowledge and ability needed to understand bitcoin and crypto to profitably buy, sell, secure, and trade cryptos with ease.
How has your background influenced you to write this book?
In 2008, Charlie and I watched the financial system be taken to the brink of collapse by bankers and incompetent, unaccountable central banks and regulators. Friends and family lost their houses, their savings, and many were financially and emotionally destroyed all because the current system was made to benefit the privileged few.
Bitcoin is a life raft, to a more sound and secure monetary system. One for all people, not just the 1%.
Bitcoin offers a better alternative.
It is secure, private, and Censorship resistant - no government or private entity can seize your bitcoin, or inflate it away.
It's also a completely transparent system of money based on indestructible code and math.
No smoke filled backrooms of Central Bankers arbitrarily setting interest rates by looking in a crystal ball which has never been right printing trillions to bail out their friends and condemning the rest of us to runaway inflation and massive debts.
What are a few adjectives you'd use to describe your book to a stranger?
Simplified. Easy to understand. Targeted. Comprehensive.
What about your book makes you the most excited?
The ability to bridge the current knowledge gap for those who think they are 'too old' (or 'too young'). Teens and boomers....and start them on the path to building and preserving wealth.
If someone were searching online for a book like yours, what keywords might they use?
Main keywords would be things like crypto, bitcoin, ethereum, cryptocurrencies, blockchain, technology, NFTs, Web3.0. Markets. Investing. Might also search - Intro to Crypto. Understanding crypto (or bitcoin). Bitcoin for beginners. Everything I need to know about crypto.
