In fact, it is only the best-known recent experiment in a long line of similar efforts going back to the 1970s. But the story behind cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and its blockchain technology has largely been untold-until now. In \u003ci\u003eDigital Cash\u003c\/i\u003e, Finn Brunton reveals how technological utopians and political radicals created experimental money to bring about their visions of the future: to protect privacy, bring down governments, prepare for apocalypse, or launch a civilization of innovation and abundance that would make its creators immortal. Filled with marvelous characters, stories, and ideas, \u003ci\u003eDigital Cash\u003c\/i\u003e is an engaging and accessible account of the strange origins and remarkable technologies behind today's cryptocurrency explosion.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Digital Cash: The Unknown History of the Anarchists, Utopians, and Technologists Who Created Cryptocurrency | Finn Brunton | Paperback | 9780691209166 | New | Technology \u0026 Engineering 1576611","offer_id":50597490753794,"sku":"1576611","price":32.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/91ZszD6-LjL.jpg?v=1791130512","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/digital-cash-the-unknown-history-of-the-anarchists-utopians-and-technologists-who-created-cryptocurrency","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
