Críticas

"When I talk about Bitcoin, I am sometimes asked 'but how does it really work?' Now I have a great answer for that question, because anybody who reads Mastering Bitcoin will have a deep understanding of how it works and will be well-equipped to write the next generation of amazing cryptocurrency applications" - Gavin Andresen, Chief Scientist, Bitcoin Foundation.

"Mastering Bitcoin is the best technical reference available on bitcoin today. And bitcoin is likely to be seen in retrospect as the most important technology of this decade. As such, this book is an absolute must-have for any developer, especially those interested in building applications with the bitcoin protocol. Highly recommended." - Balaji S. Srinivasan (@balajis), General Partner Andreessen Horowitz

"Bitcoin and blockchain technologies are becoming fundamental building blocks for the next generation internet. Silicon Valley's best and brightest are working on it. Andreas' book will help you join the software revolution in the world of finance." - Naval Ravikant, cofounder, AngelList

"The invention of the Bitcoin Blockchain represents an entirely new platform to build upon, one that will enable an ecosystem as wide and diverse as the Internet itself. As one of the preeminent thought leaders, Andreas M. Antonopoulos is the perfect choice to write this book." - Roger Ver, Bitcoin Entrepreneur & Investor

It is written for programmers who are interested in learning about Bitcoin. It’s ok for beginners but leans towards people who are more familiar with Bitcoin. There’s a lot of programming language in the book.

5.0 de 5 estrellas The Goto Resource For Learning Bitcoin

This is definitely the Bitcoin book to get if you are interested in the inner workings of Bitcoin. The later chapters get highly technical and assume you have a programming background. There is a relatively quick transition from the basics of bitcoin into the gritty details.

The language is direct and to the point so there is quite a lot of information packed into the 200 pages.

A nice balance between code shown, diagrams, and explanations was provided throughout the book. In some cases the explanations could have used a little more depth as author explains some highly techincal ideas quickly. Still, this is the only real substantial Bitcoin book out there for now.

I just finished reading this after listening to Antonoplouos on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. It is excellent and if you want to learn Bitcoin, this is a great place to start. It really shines when he goes into detail of how to use open source code to noodle around with the blockchain and the client. It is not perfect though. The order of it feels reversed. The first few chapters are hard to understand without having a broad understanding of Bitcoin already. Also, the text assumes the graphics are in color but they are not. This makes it hard to follow some of the examples. The online version of the book (free) is actually better for this reason. Finally, it lacks motivation for why the protocol is structured as it is. For instance, it's not really clear here why Proof of Work is necessary. This blog post does a much better job:

Otherwise, very well researched and clearly written.

5.0 de 5 estrellas Best of breed regarding Bitcoin technical fundamentals
Calificado en Estados Unidos el 27 de diciembre de 2014

It's a pleasure for me to write this review. I don't know the author or have any affiliation with him or the businesses that he consults with. I can't say enough good things about this book. I actually got the paper version of this. If you are a technical sort of person, this book is for you. I would say if you do tech support, system admin, programming, system security or anything where you have a baseline knowledge of digital systems, then this book will be good for you. If you know nothing of computer systems, then you may want to work up to this book. This text goes into the nuts and bolts of Bitcoin, the protocol, payment system and crypto-systems. I don't want to scare anyone away, however. This is a very quick read (something like 260 pages). I am not certain if the reason for this is that Andreas is just a great writer and was able to condense a broad topic in very few pages -or- Bitcoin itself just isn't overly complicated and lends itself to a concise text. I do know that I started reading this book with a ton of knowledge about Bitcoin (I thought), yet I still got a ton of information. It was though this book tied a bunch of free-floating ideas that weren't linked before. Instead of endlessly reading the Bitcoin wiki, the Bitcoin Core (formerly Satoshi client) source code, changelogs, bitcointalk forum and attempting to piece all of that together, this book does all that for you. I do think that reading those outlets IS important, but this book is key to jump start your understanding if you aren't a super genius (I'm not). Undoubtedly, you will come away with more questions about cryptocurrencies then when you started the book, but this is what is beautiful about life sometimes. One questions unlocks many more. I feel, after reading this book, that I can have an intelligent discussion with some high level people in the cryptocurrency world. The sorts of questions that I can ask someone like Gavin Andresen go beyond "what wallet would you recommend" to "let's discuss set reconciliation and the its importance to the p2p world at large". I feel like I have the fundamentals down thanks to this book.

Although it's too early to give a complete review, so far this has helped to clarify some of the complexities of Bitcoin and being the most current overall look at the Bitcoin ecosystem it provides an overall picture of Bitcoin as it is at the end of 2014. It is invaluable and required reading for anyone interested in Bitcoin. Which should be anyone, but for now, mostly developers. I will update my review after I am done reading the book!

This book has been a joy to work with. It is coherent, well structured, technically accurate, and offers a wealth of external resources that will continue to enhance the reader's understanding of the space. Highly recommended for anyone attempting to understand Bitcoin at a deep level. Also recommended for novices in the space, just skip some of the deeper code stuff. The book is well written enough so that even a novice will gain significant understanding from it.

4.0 de 5 estrellas The best bitcoin reference but does lack depth in some areas
Calificado en Estados Unidos el 5 de septiembre de 2015
Compra verificada
Excellent coverage of bitcoin. The reason for 4 stars rather than five is that the explanations are sometimes not great. The discussion of elliptic curves was particularly poor (fig 4.4 etc) and often security/encryption techniques are left dangling (e.g. RIPEMD160 etc ). A lot of hand waving going on. A lot of discussion of "what" but very sparse on the "why". Anyway, I purchased a few additional references which cover cryptography in detail to fill the gap. Overall, this is probably the best single reference on bitcoin and a great place to start digging deeper ... looking forward to second edition.

This book covers everything you could want to know about the technical aspects Bitcoin. If you are as passionate about Bitcoin as I am, you want to know the internal rules that govern the Bitcoin network; this book will teach you more things about bitcoin and it's evolving protocols.

NOT a book for someone who is just getting into the Bitcoin scene. There are FREE websites that can give you beginner information. Please play it safe..backup wallets, paper wallets, etc. I've lost thousands of dollars in bitcoin because I was too eager to make bitcoins; no backups, no paper wallet;

Quite good! Is a tough read since it goes all the way into the details, but then this is what I wanted, so I'm happy I got it. Really well explained. I miss a few cheat sheets, or take away recap at the end of each chapter to gather all the important info at once, as there is a LOT of info that you have to digest.
