John Hargrave
About this listen
From the author of Mind Hacking and founder of Bitcoin Market Journal comes the first book to explain the money-making secrets behind bitcoin and blockchain in a user-friendly format.
When John Hargrave first invested in cryptocurrency, the price of a single bitcoin was about $125; a few years later, that same bitcoin was worth $20,000. He wasn’t alone: this flood of new money is like the early days of the Internet, creating a new breed of “blockchain billionaires”.
Sir John has unlocked their secrets.
In Blockchain for Everyone, Sir John reveals the formula for investing in bitcoin and blockchain, using real-life stories, easy-to-understand examples, and a healthy helping of humor. Packed with illustrations, Blockchain for Everyone explains how (and when) to buy bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and other blockchain assets, with step-by-step instructions.
Blockchain for Everyone is the first blockchain investing book written for the layperson: a guide that helps everyone understand how to build wealth wisely. It’s the new investing manifesto!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

When a pseudonymous programmer introduced “a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party” to a small Online mailing list in 2008, very few paid attention. Ten years later, and against all odds, this upstart autonomous decentralized software offers an unstoppable and globally-accessible hard money alternative to modern central banks. The Bitcoin Standard analyzes the historical context to the rise of Bitcoin, the economic properties that have allowed it to grow quickly, and its likely economic, political, and social implications.

Story
In 2021 cryptocurrency went mainstream. Giant investment funds were buying it, celebrities like Tom Brady endorsed it, and TV ads hailed it as the future of money. Hardly anyone knew how it worked—but why bother with the particulars when everyone was making a fortune from Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, or some other bizarrely named “digital asset”? As he observed this frenzy, investigative reporter Zeke Faux had a nagging question: Was it all just a confidence game of epic proportions? What started as curiosity—with a dash of FOMO—would morph into a two-year globe-spanning quest.

Hi! I’m Seth! I was asked to describe my audiobook, Yearbook for websites and shit like that, so...here it goes!!! Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it’s likely the former, which is a fancy “book” way of saying “the first one.”) I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like.

Bob Odenkirk’s career is inexplicable. And yet he will try like hell to explicate it for you. Charting a “Homeric” decades-long “odyssey” from his origins in the seedy comedy clubs of Chicago to a dramatic career full of award nominations - with a side trip into the action-man world that is baffling to all who know him - it’s almost like there are many Bob Odenkirks! But there is just one and one is plenty. Featuring humorous tangents, wild characters, and Bob’s trademark unflinching drive, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic tale told by a determined idiot.

Phenomenal.-makes blockchain understandable
This is my favorite Audible listen ever. Sir John Hargrave takes a complex subject-one that I have struggled to understand-and makes it MUCH easier to comprehend. The content totally matches the book title - he explains the Blockchain for Everyone. If you're trying to figure out the blockchain or how to invest in altcoins...this is a must listen and read. In fact, after listening to it on Audible, I bought the physical book as well and can't wait to follow up my listen. Finally, the author narrates the book himself and makes the already great content absolutely jump off the page. If he isn't best narrator on Audible, I don't know who is. A must listen!

Too much auto-biography, not enough info on blockchain. Lost objectives in the stories. Kept thinking, "what's his point?"

It’s a great story and I looked forward to listening each day in the car but I want a cheat sheet of lessons learned and takeaways to start investing comfortably. I listened to John’s Mind Hacking book so I was expecting a follow along exercise of sorts.

In the first few minutes the guy calls a guy with a Irish brogue a leprechaun & then proceeds to bring up Lucky Charms saying he hopes the Irish banker says the bank lollipop comes in the flavors of said cereal.
If I could give zero stars I would.

no substance, not very funny, weird music.
This guy's a comedian? Humor felt forced. Self-indulgent? Yep. World dialect impressions? This book has them. Odd that a Chinese women sounds like an Irish man. This was more autobiographical than educational about Blockchain. No Blockchain substance, just his history in the space The constant music was distracting. John's probably a really nice guy and has a great wife but I had to power through to the end on this one since I shelled out audible credits on it. I wanted to give up in the first chapter. And now I'd like some of my time back after going to the end.
