I went in expecting a crypto fluff piece but was pleasantly surprised. Dixon identifies many key issues plaguing the web and new ventures today. Whilst I don't necessarily agree that the best solution to these issues is to put everything on the blockchain (even if the environmental concerns have been mitigated), I walked away from this book less sceptical of crypto and defi than before.
