Rezensionen

Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Bitcoin, für Einsteiger

Entwickeln wir uns zu einer bargeldlosen Gesellschaft? David Birch ist davon überzeugt. Der Direktor einer Beratungsfirma für sichere Bezahlsysteme wirft einen Blick zurück in die Geschichte des Geldes und der Bitcoins und entwickelt ein techno-optimistisches Zukunftsszenario. Darin spielen Zentralbanken keine Rolle mehr. Stattdessen bezahlen die Menschen in Digitalwährungen wie etwa dem "Manchester United Pfund". Definitiv utopisch, lesenswert.
