About this listen

If you want to know if the bitcoin opportunity is right for you, then keep listening....

Most of us have heard about bitcoin and cryptocurrency—even if we don’t know what these terms mean. Despite the amount of news coverage this new technology receives, relatively few individuals are actively participating in the bitcoin opportunity.

Why is this? There are no doubt many reasons. It’s all too technical. It’s risky. It’s confusing. Many people don’t know where to start—or maybe they think it’s not something they need.

You don’t need to be tech-savvy to understand bitcoin. You don’t need to be a computing magician to buy bitcoin.

This technology and this opportunity are available to everyone—what’s needed is a straightforward, no-BS introduction.

In this audiobook, you’ll discover:

  • Why you can trust bitcoin—even though no one knows who created it.
  • How to explain bitcoin and its potential in plain speak to anyone you know—without techno-babble.
  • How it works. What it really is. You’ll join the two percent of people who do understand it.
  • What the crypto world looks like beyond bitcoin—you’ll get a brief taster for Altcoins, NFTs, and DeFi—all in plain speak.
  • The two simple strategies that will bring you long-term success as a bitcoin investor.

And as a free bonus, you’ll also receive the Crypto Survival Quick Start Guide. You need this to understand the potential dangers of crypto—and to stay safe.

Most audiobooks about bitcoin and crypto are hard to digest. Marco Hødd explains things in a straightforward and uncomplicated fashion.

He has created this audiobook to inform and excite a whole new audience. You’ll find this a fast and easy path to understanding the bitcoin opportunity, even if you don’t have any technical or computer skills.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A well written and relatable introduction to Crypt

I found this to be a very relatable introduction to crypto currencies and more specifically Bitcoin. The author has taken the time to explain where Crypto fits into the whole investment world, and why we should all be thinking about crypto as an an investment opportunity. Even if you have already stepped into the world of crypto I would recommend this book as it such a well rounded guide covering more than other books I've seen.

Super interesting and easy to understand.

I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. It de-mystified bitcoin for me in a straightforward, easy-to-understand way. I like the narration - it's very easy to listen to and everything is presented in an interesting way. I feel like the author has taken great care to convey his knowledge to a newbie to crypto like me! Highly recommend.

Excellent Book

I’ve now listen to a few so called beginners guides to crypto etc but this is by far the best. A real honest view and explanation of the history and mechanic’s of crypto and Bitcoin and how they work, with no technical jargon. Giving views from both sides. If your considering dipping your toe in with Bitcoin or already have but still don’t know what it’s all about then I would highly recommend having a listen to this audio book.

A great introduction into the world of cryptocurrency

If you are looking to dip your toe in the world cryptocurrency, then this is the book for you.

The author sets out and clearly explains in what cryptocurrencies are, how they work and also their history. Whilst, the book mainly focuses on Bitcoin, it also touches on NFT’s and De-Fi.

All in all this is a thoroughly researched and structured book. I have several friends who are looking to get into crypto and I will be recommending this book to them.

A five star rating from me.

Great introduction into Bitcoin and crypto world

I found this audio book really good introduction into the Bitcoin world. The author explains the concept of Bitcoin in plain non jargon language. After listening to the book you will understand what Bitcoin is, why it is very exciting new technology and what the future is likely to be. The book is aimed at beginners and it does a great job in addressing and explaining the questions anyone with no prior knowledge has.
Great book, thoroughly recommended.

Accessible, informative and a bit mindblowing

This short audio book, which is clearly narrated by Scott Gillis, provides a well-written, largely accessible introduction to Bitcoin and associated concepts from the world of crypto - blockchain, other cryptocurrencies etc. Marco Hodd assumes no prior knowledge and explicitly positions the book as the practical guide he wishes he'd had when he started investing in cryptocurrency.

My favourite part of the book was the very clear explanation of what Bitcoin is and how it differs from other currencies, positioned in the context of the history of money. It certainly made me think about how what money 'is', how traditional 'fiat' currencies are manipulated by governments and helped me understand why, for unstable economies in particular, Bitcoin is an attractive proposition.

In the final chapter the author introduces some of the developments in the wider world of cryptocurrency and this got a bit difficult to follow on audio due to all the unfamiliar terms. Fortunately, the author provides a downloadable ebook free with the audiobook, so you can go back over this if you like.

Whether you are just interested in understanding more or actively considering Bitcoin as an investment option, this book is a really good entry point into a huge and sometimes mindblowing area of technology.
