Richard Lachance: I like the way they approach the topic. It is simple to understand. Although I have read only a few chapters I do plan to finish off the book.

David: The Crypto revolution is underway (my opinion) and Bitcoin is a lead player in this market. I wanted a good foundation on how crypto's work, what is a wallet, how does it work, how do I sign up... and more.

This book is answering my questions in terms I can understand. The techie jibberish is left out. Just real words I can relate to OR new terms are actually EXPLAINED.

Want to know about Bitcoin? Get this book and then READ IT!

Steven Monahan: I have just started my journey to learn just what this new currency is. Is it fake? Is it real? Will it change the world or will it quickly fade away? I learned all I wanted to know and so much more. After reading this I navigated my way through uncertainty and set up an account, created a wallet and purchased my first Bitcoin Etherum and Litecoin. This can be frustrating and it does not happen as fast as the pundits say. It takes awhile to get approved, set up a bank account and do all the new procedures. Without Bitcoin for Dummies I would have failed. I highly recommend this book.

MD: Das mit dem „für Dummies“ ist so eine Sache. Sicherlich keine rein technische Abhandlung für Crypto-Nerds, aber auch kein roter Faden für Neueinsteiger. Wäre nett, wenn jemand auf die Idee gekommen wäre, eine Transaktion mal von A bis Z durchgzuspielen. Letztlich werden doch wieder Anwenderkenntnisse vorausgesetzt.

Rod K.: A bit disappointed. Instead of giving the information, it put in many internet links to wikipedia if you want more in depth info. When I buy a book, I want to see the information in the book not references to the internet. No information on how hardware wallets work. The kindle version is missing most of the graphics. Not written with the light humor that the "dummies" books are written in that make the dummies book more engaging and easy to read. The information is solid but some sections repeat themselves in the book like the sections on the 51 percent vulnerability. The book goes very light on some topics and deep into some like coding and mining that "dummies" don't care about. I would have liked to see more advice on how to manage wallets. More practical knowledge for end users.

ApplianceJunk: A few years ago I tried to learn what I could about bitcoins using Google searches. The more I read online about bitcoins at the time the more confusing the subject got for me. It was also around this same time that Apple removed all Bitcoin Wallet apps from their app store. Between the confusing information I was finding online, Apple dropping all Bitcoin Wallet apps (Bitcoin wallet apps have since returned to the app store) and some negative stores about bitcoin in the news at the time I decided Bitcoin was not something I wanted to put anymore time into let alone my hard earned cash.

Fast forward a few years and I decide to do some more research on bitcoins. Being a big Amazon Prime fan now and a big fan of the “for Dummies” books I go to Amazon to see what I can find. Much to my surprise I find the book “Bitcoin For Dummies 1st Edition” and it was just recently published! I download the free sample and minutes later I purchase the kindle version of the book.

What a eye opener Bitcoin For Dummies has been for me. If you are like me and feel that you don’t really have a good understanding about how bitcoins work or even what they are then I highly...
