The modern understanding of what it means to be stoical is never showing any form of outward emotion regardless of all circumstances, good or bad, and indeed not having any emotions whatsoever. The entire species of the Vulcans in the popular science fiction franchise Star Trek exemplifies the popular definition. But it's easy to recognize an absence of outward emotion as not necessarily being a good thing.

A platform, by definition, creates value by facilitating an exchange between two or more interdependent groups. So, rather than making things, they simply connect people. The advent of mobile computing and its ubiquitous connectivity have forever altered how we interact with each other. Yet, few people truly grasp the radical structural shifts of the last 10 years.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Story
I have discovered a group of women who refuse to be exploited, are immune to manipulation, and who never settle in the name of love. These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Best Blockchain Audiobook Out there!
After heavily following the crypto space over the years, I found this to still be extremely informative for people with any level of experience. It provides a great overview and then goes into the nitty-gritty, which is very useful for anyone interested in cryptocurrencies and the evolution of the space. Also, the narrator does a fantastic job and this was an entertaining listen.

4.5 stars
I think this was a great beginners book. It has a lot of information and it is explained very well. Covers a broad range of blockchain including the capabilities, future uses and its faults. It also covers its history, but doesn't go as deep as I would have liked into how it fully works. If your looking for a quick read to cover the basics and a little more, this would be a great read. The narration was great and has been converted to audio version very well. Instead of reading the full hash code, it reads the first few digits and provides the rest in a sheet you can download. Unfortunately it wasn't provided by Audible, but the author provides it on a site. I received this book as a gift for my honest review.

Awesome introduction to blockchain
If you don't know anything about blockchain this book describes it in a very simple way. Moreover, you will grasp the concept how Bitcoin works and what are the other uses of blockchain. The last chapter deals with the technical part; I recommend to see other visual materials to grasp the concept. Lastly, if your level of English is good, you can increase the speed.

Great Information on the History of Blockchain
Very detailed on the history of blockchain. This book opened my mind up a little to bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, etc. It also clears up what a blockchain is and who is involved with it.

Exactly what I needed
I must premise this by saying, I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.
This book is exactly what I wanted to be. Concise, but also a complete overview of the history of "digital money", Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, smart contracts and the future of money.
I came to this book with a basic understanding, and feel like it filled in all the gaps in my knowledge about cryptocurrencies. I can see this book being a great primer for anyone interested in getting a complete overview of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and blockchain technologies.
