But it is here to stay, and you ignore it at your peril.Vigna and Casey demystify cryptocurrency its origins, its function, and what you need to know to navigate a cyber-economy. The digital currency world will look very different from the paper currency world; "The Age of Cryptocurrency" will teach you how to be ready."
