Blockchain
The hype surrounding Bitcoin has subsided: While the value of a single Bitcoin was still over €15,000 at the beginning of 2018, it has now leveled off at €7,000. No other cryptocurrency has managed to take the place of Bitcoin. For many companies, the technology behind it is much more interesting anyway: Blockchain is on everyone's lips. This method of decentralized data storage opens up completely new possibilities, especially in the financial sector. Some blockchain supporters claim that the technology will change the world as we know it forever. Whether this is true or not, it is clear that blockchain can do more than just Bitcoin. But how exactly does this decentralized data storage system work? What can be achieved with the technology? And what about data protection in the blockchain age? These and other burning questions are addressed in numerous books. E-3 Magazine presents five of them, which promise an overview of the complex topics of blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
