Summary of Stephen P. Williams's Blockchain

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Blockchain is software. It is as simple as that. It exists only as a string of code on computers, phones, and other devices. You join a chain by connecting your phone, computer, or other device to it via software and the Internet.

#2 Blockchain is a digital ledger that can track the flow of goods, money, the provenance of artworks, and the health of the tundra. It is the basis of civilization, as we would never have developed markets or cities without ledgers.

#3 The brilliance of the design is that the blockchain is replicated on every one of these nodes. If someone were to change the information in a block, they would also have to change it on every separate node in the chain.

#4 The Assemblage, a coworking space and positive cult collective in New York City, sponsored a panel discussion titled AI, Blockchain, and the New Matriarchy.
