Arvind Narayanan, Joseph Bonneau, Edward Felten, Andrew Miller, Steven Goldfeder, Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies, Princeton: Princeton University Press (forthcoming), 2016. This textbook closely follows the video lectures in the course. The official and professionally done version of the book will be out this summer.
Introduction to the book
There’s a lot of excitement about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Optimists claim that Bitcoin will
fundamentally alter payments, economics, and even politics around the world. Pessimists claim
Bitcoin is inherently broken and will suffer an inevitable and spectacular collapse.
Underlying these differing views is significant confusion about what Bitcoin is and how it works. We
wrote this book to help cut through the hype and get to the core of what makes Bitcoin unique.
To really understand what is special about Bitcoin, we need to understand how it works at a technical
level. Bitcoin truly is a new technology and we can only get so far by explaining it through simple
analogies to past technologies.
We’ll assume that you have a basic understanding of computer science — how computers work, data
structures and algorithms, and some programming experience. If you’re an undergraduate or
graduate student of computer science, a software developer, an entrepreneur, or a technology
hobbyist, this textbook is for you.
In this book we’ll address the important questions about Bitcoin. How does Bitcoin work? What
makes it different? How secure are your bitcoins? How anonymous are Bitcoin users? What
applications can we build using Bitcoin as a platform? Can cryptocurrencies be regulated? If we were
designing a new cryptocurrency today, what would we change? What might the future hold?
Each chapter has a series of homework questions to help you understand these questions at a deeper
level. In addition, there is a series of programming assignments in which you’ll implement various
components of Bitcoin in simplified models. If you’re an auditory learner, most of the material of this
book is also available as a series of video lectures. You can find all these on our Coursera course . You
should also supplement your learning with information you can find online including the Bitcoin wiki,
forums, and research papers, and by interacting with your peers and the Bitcoin community.
After reading this book, you’ll know everything you need to be able to separate fact from fiction when
reading claims about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. You’ll have the conceptual foundations you
need to engineer secure software that interacts with the Bitcoin network. And you’ll be able to
integrate ideas from Bitcoin into your own projects.

花瞭好久纔斷斷續續看完,當作入門書籍還可以
評分反正作為對這塊完全不懂的人,這本書講的還是挺不錯的,該懂的都懂瞭。復雜的部分一知半解也就過瞭。比特幣最牛的就是它的去中心化,看看它怎麼撬動這個世界吧。
評分這可能是2015乃至現在,最好的bitcoin『科普』教科書。 據說是普林斯頓的教科書,估計是低年級的課程。定位其實很尷尬,作為開發者來看,這本書絕對是不夠的;作為門外漢,後麵有幾章的內容確實需要比較強的『學術』背景纔能比較好的消化。 但是,這仍然不失為一本好的科普讀本。尤其是bitcoin的前世今生,讀起來還是很有趣味性的。給4分吧 anonymity = pseudonymity + unlinkability
評分講的東西很多,結構非常清晰
評分good introduction. a few chapter, e.g. transactions and hash pointers are a bit confusing and could have been better written.
这是一本普林斯顿老师写给技术宅的书。 作者在序言里说:如果你是一名计算机专业本科生或研究生、软件工程师、创业者或技术爱好者,那么这本书很适合你。 但看过后发现,对于非技术背景人员也是非常有趣有用的。 一本好书就应该是深入浅出又不乏详尽的把问题讲清楚吧。 “货币...
評分直译应该是《比特币与加密数字货币系统全面参考指南》是一本2015年从技术角度解析比特币区块链技术演进、实现、发展的全面指南,讨论加密数字货币的理想、实现、缺陷、改进与优化的技术解析。 虽然已经读了多本关于数字货币和区块链的书,总是感觉太多写的不够透彻和深入,新经...
評分 評分为2018.02期读书会活动所写 近来区块链实在大火,以至于同事们纷纷讨论,追求科技,必然要了解它。于是知乎上看了多篇文章,看了原始论文《Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System》,补充p2p通信的一些知识,以及初略的看了《区块链:技术驱动金融》这本书。 该书前...
評分区块链并不是一个新技术,而是用已经存在技术来解决问题的一种新思想新规则,其中包含了密码学、分布式计算等已经成熟的技术,他主要是解决了中心化的信任问题。比特币就是区块链技术最成功的应用,分布式账本可能是大家听过最多的介绍。 这本书除了标题翻译得莫名其妙以外,是...
