This book is called 'Blockchain - A Hype or a Hoax' has been published due to a gap in the book market to provide a material that is not only technical but also cater for business readers. I wrote this book by keeping in mind various stakeholder and current gap in Blockchain education as well as use cases implementation.
This book will carry a review of Blockchain technology, discussion on why POC fails, examples of use case that have been successful and failed, articulate a framework that should be used before deciding whether Blockchain is the right technology for transformation. It will use some strategic models and framework to assist organisations to see a fit score for their specific use cases.
This book will provide a guidance on how to create a Blockchain strategy, business case to pitch for the budget, a case study to apply the knowledge on practical use cases for Blockchain and also a technical overview of most of the Blockchain use cases in the market including Crypto, NFTs, DeFi, DAO, financial and non-financial industry use cases. etc.
This book will also provide a detailed overview of most of the mainstream Blockchain products available in the market currently and also how to get educated on Blockchain technology through commercial as well as freely available resources.
It will conclude with a clear direction along with do's and don'ts of using Blockchain. A financial and non-financial value add framework will be discussed throughout this book to assist the business leaders, programme managers, product managers and IT leaders to make strategic choices, business case and develop strategy for Digital transformation through the use of Blockchain.
The distinctive feature of this book will be critical analysis of Blockchain from technology and business perspective. It will be the first book to focus on business, technology and Blockchain selection framework. The most unique selling point of this book would be to apply Michael Porter's competitive advantage strategy theory on Blockchain use cases and impact on companies.
This book will be aimed at Technology students, Technology professionals, Blockchain and fintech consultants, Business leaders and anyone who is fascinated by Blockchain.
The prospective readers would read the book to grow their knowledge and improve fintech strategy. It will also be useful for anyone building business case to adopt Blockchain into the organisation.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書名為《區塊鏈 - 噱頭還是騙局》,是因為市場上缺乏一本既具技術性又能滿足商業讀者需求的書籍而出版的。我在撰寫這本書時,考慮到了各種利益相關者以及區塊鏈教育的當前缺口和實施案例。
本書將對區塊鏈技術進行回顧,討論為何POC(概念驗證)失敗,提供成功和失敗的案例,並闡明在決定區塊鏈是否是轉型的正確技術之前應使用的框架。它將使用一些戰略模型和框架,幫助組織評估其特定用例的適配度。
本書將提供如何創建區塊鏈策略的指導,撰寫預算提案的商業案例,應用知識於區塊鏈實際用例的案例研究,以及市場上大多數區塊鏈用例的技術概述,包括加密貨幣、NFT、去中心化金融(DeFi)、去中心化自治組織(DAO)、金融和非金融行業的用例等。
本書還將詳細概述目前市場上大多數主流區塊鏈產品,以及如何通過商業資源和免費資源來學習區塊鏈技術。
最後將以清晰的方向結束,並提供使用區塊鏈的注意事項和禁忌。本書將討論一個財務和非財務價值增值框架,以協助商業領導者、項目經理、產品經理和IT領導者做出戰略選擇、商業案例並制定數位轉型策略,通過使用區塊鏈來實現。
本書的獨特之處在於從技術和商業的角度對區塊鏈進行批判性分析。這將是第一本專注於商業、技術和區塊鏈選擇框架的書籍。本書最獨特的賣點是將邁克爾·波特(Michael Porter)的競爭優勢策略理論應用於區塊鏈用例及其對公司的影響。
本書的目標讀者包括技術學生、技術專業人士、區塊鏈和金融科技顧問、商業領導者以及任何對區塊鏈感興趣的人。
潛在讀者將閱讀本書以增長知識並改善金融科技策略。對於任何希望將區塊鏈納入組織的人來說,這本書也將非常有用。
