What happens when money stops belonging to governments and starts belonging to everyone else? Beyond the Fiat unpacks the quiet revolution shaking the world of finance, where cryptocurrencies, central bank digital currencies, and decentralized finance are rewriting the rules of power.

Herman Strange guides readers through real stories and global examples, tracing how digital money is reshaping value, inclusion, and control. From peer-to-peer innovation to the darker sides of volatility, manipulation, and surveillance, he shows how technology is redefining trust itself.

Clear, grounded, and thought-provoking, this book bridges economics, technology, and ethics to ask the deeper questions what does financial freedom really mean in an age of code?

As the old system fades and digital money rises, one truth lingers: who will control the next era of wealth?
