THE TRUTH ABOUT CRYPTO

Ric Edelman

A Practical, Easy-to-Understand Guide to Bitcoin, Blockchain, NFTs, and Other Digital Assets

A straightforward, practical guide to the newest frontier in investment strategy - crypto - from #1 New York Times bestselling author and personal finance expert Ric Edelman.
Blockchain and bitcoin are here to stay - and as the Bank of England stated, this new technology could "transform the global financial system." No wonder PWC says blockchain technology will add $2 trillion to the world's $80 trillion economy by 2030. Indeed, blockchain technology and the digital assets it makes possible are revolutionary, the most profound innovation for commerce since the invention of the internet.

And yet, the average investor - and the investment advisors who manage two-thirds of all their money - aren't aware of all this, or of the incredible investment opportunities now available. Fortunately, Ric Edelman, one of the most influential experts in the financial field, shows investors how they can engage and thrive in today's new investment marketplace.

Featuring the prophetic insights you'd expect from one of most acclaimed financial advisors, The Truth About Crypto is fun to read and easy to understand - and most importantly gives readers the sound, practical advice we all need to succeed with this new asset class. Best of all, Edelman shows how blockchain works, the difference between digital currency and digital assets, and a comprehensive look at every aspect of the field. This book is a must-read guide if you want to achieve investment success today.

Ric Edelman is among the financial profession's most influential people according to Investment Advisor, RIABiz and InvestmentNews. Barron's ranked him three times as the nation's #1 Independent Financial Advisor and he's in Research magazine's Financial Advisor Hall of Fame. Ric is founder of the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals and Funding Our Future Coalition and holds two patents for financial product innovation.

Ric is the industry's top financial educator, for thirty years the award-winning host of his national personal finance radio show. He's also produced award-winning specials for Public Television, and is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of ten books on personal finance. He taught personal finance for nine years at Georgetown University and is now Distinguished Lecturer at Rowan University, which named its communications school the Ric Edelman College of Communication & Creative Arts in 2020.
Ric and his wife Jean live in Northern Virginia. They are benefactors of the Edelman Center for Nursing at Inova Hospital Foundation, the Edelman Indoor Arena at Northern Virginia Therapeutic Riding Program, and Rowan University's Edelman Planetarium and Edelman Fossil Park.

More information is needed around this asset class, and The Truth About Crypto is a good resource for both financial advisors and investors who are seeking more knowledge in this area.

Our increasingly digital world offers continuous reminders of the enormous potential of digital assets. Ric's new book, The Truth About Crypto, provides an effective and practical framework to analyze the potential investment opportunities in arguably the biggest revolution since the internet.

This book provides the most useful explanations about blockchain and digital assets, and how they are profoundly changing our economy. Whether you are an investor, a financial advisor, or a student, The Truth About Crypto will open your eyes and your mind to what this all means for the future.

Edelman discusses the history of bitcoin, describes how crypto works (with easy to grasp definitions, for instance, of decentralized, aka "distributed across millions of computers around the world"), lays out the technology's potential positive impact (60% of the world's unbanked people have smartphones, so could access digital assets), and assesses whether it's too late to buy in (spoiler alert: it's not)... this is a rare bird: an actually understandable guide to cryptocurrency. Those wondering what all the fuss is about will find this a great resource.

The Truth About Crypto is a delightful, easy read and I learned much about crypto, blockchain technology, and the exciting possibilities that lay just ahead for commerce and consumers. It's educational, enlightening, and motivating. I highly recommend this book!
