The “rollicking” (The Economist), “masterfully written” (The Washington Post) account of the crypto delusion, and how Sam Bankman-Fried and a cast of fellow nerds and hustlers turned useless virtual coins into trillions of dollars—hailed by Ezra Klein in The New York Times as one of the “Books That Explain Where We Are”FINALIST: the Edgar Award (Fact Crime), the Macavity Award (Nonfiction), the Porchlight Business Book Award, the SABEW Best in Business Book AwardA BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times DealBook, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Financial Times, The Globe and Mail, Irish Examiner, Morningstar, The Verge, WiredIn 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 to understand the wizards behind the world’s new financial machinery. Faux’s investigation would lead him to a schlubby, frizzy-haired twenty-nine-year-old named Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF for short) and a host of other crypto scammers, utopians, and overnight billionaires.Faux follows the trail to a luxury resort in the Bahamas, where SBF boldly declares that he will use his crypto fortune to save the world. Faux talks his way onto the yacht of a former child actor turned crypto impresario and gains access to “ApeFest,” an elite party headlined by Snoop Dogg, by purchasing a $20,000 image of a cartoon monkey. In El Salvador, Faux learns what happens when a country wagers its treasury on Bitcoin, and in the Philippines, he stumbles upon a Pokémon knockoff mobile game touted by boosters as a cure for poverty. And in an astonishing development, a spam text leads Faux to Cambodia, where he uncovers a crypto-powered human-trafficking ring.When the bubble suddenly bursts in 2022, Faux brings readers inside SBF’s penthouse as the fallen crypto king faces his imminent arrest. Fueled by the absurd details and authoritative reporting that earned Zeke Faux the accolade “our great poet of crime” (Money Stuff columnist Matt Levine), Number Go Up is the essential chronicle, by turns harrowing and uproarious, of a $3 trillion financial delusion.

The Illicit Finance Risk Assessment of Decentralized Finance report by the U.S. Department of the Treasury examines the risks associated with decentralized finance (DeFi) services and their potential use for illicit finance activities such as money laundering, terrorism financing, and acquisition of materials for weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs. The report identifies key factors such as non-compliant DeFi services, disintermediation, a lack of implementation of international anti-money laundering/counter-financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) standards in foreign countries, and cybersecurity weaknesses in DeFi services that continue to pose vulnerabilities that enable criminal use of DeFi services.The report highlights the vulnerabilities and potential exploits in open-source code, which can lead to widespread exploits if code reused in multiple DeFi services contains vulnerabilities. The public availability of many DeFi services' source code also presents the opportunity for other persons to reuse the code in smart contracts for a separate DeFi service. The document emphasizes that it is critical that the DeFi service identifies and addresses vulnerabilities and potential exploits in open-source code.Color interior.The report recommends several actions to address these risks, including strengthening AML/CFT supervision of virtual asset activities, assessing possible enhancements to the U.S. AML/CFT regulatory regime as applied to DeFi services, continuing research and private sector engagement to support understanding of developments in the DeFi ecosystem, continuing to engage with foreign partners, advocating for cyber resilience in virtual asset firms, testing of code, and robust threat information sharing, and promoting responsible innovation of mitigation measures.Overall, the report concludes that DeFi poses significant illicit finance risks and calls for increased regulatory oversight and collaboration between government agencies and the private sector to address these risks. The report also poses several questions for consideration, such as what factors should be considered to determine whether DeFi services are a financial institution under the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), how can the U.S. government encourage the adoption of measures to mitigate illicit finance risks, and how should AML/CFT obligations vary based on the different types of services offered by DeFi services.

'An essential resource. Howson strikes not just at cryptocurrency, but the frauds who promote blockchain technology as a solution to any social problem' David Gerard, author of Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain'A merciless takedown of attempts to apply blockchain to the world's biggest problems ... If you are thinking of using blockchain for good, read this first' Professor Villi Lehdonvirta, University of OxfordThe subject of immense hope, hype and confusion, crypto has amassed countless headlines in recent years. With cryptocurrencies, NFTs and metaverse markets crashing, the underlying blockchain technology is still promised to solve global development challenges, and revolutionise every industry. But is the technology really a silver bullet?Peter Howson cuts through the jargon and bluster to tell an alarming story of how right-wing libertarian crypto entrepreneurs - often aided by charities, politicians and philanthropists - seek out and exploit conditions of poverty, oppression, corruption and conflict. Their goal? A new front of 'crypto-colonial' extractivism. Let Them Eat Crypto reveals the alarming truth: far from 'banking the unbanked', saving the gorillas, or freeing people from oppressive governments, blockchain offers only false solutions, surveillance and hi-tech snake oil.Peter Howson is a technology writer, researcher and Assistant Professor in International Development at Northumbria University. His work has appeared in Reuters, The Independent, The Conversation, Novara, Jacobin and Coindesk. He investigates the green-washing, aid-washing and crypto-shenanigans that go on in Silicon Valley, as well as the lesser-known tech-hubs of the Global South.

Felix Müller-Eising untersucht die Nutzung der Blockchain-Technologie für das Grundbuch, das Handelsregister und das Aktienregister. Zuerst wird eine Einführung in die allgemeine Funktionsweise einer Blockchain gegeben, wobei Token, kryptografische Schlüssel, Smart Contracts und Konsensmechanismen wie Proof-of-Work und Proof-of-Stake erläutert werden. Danach werden dezentrale und zentrale Einsatzmöglichkeiten einer Blockchain für die Register untersucht. Er kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass sowohl das Grundbuch als auch das Handelsregister durch eine Blockchain keinen deutlichen Mehrwert erhalten würden. Dagegen habe die Tokenisierung von Aktien in einem blockchainbasierten Aktienregister einige Vorteile, die den Einsatz einer Blockchain rechtfertigen würden.
