Description

An insider's account of crypto's fight to reshape global finance

In The New Adventures of CryptoDad: The Quest for Financial Freedom in the 21st Century, former CFTC Chairman Christopher Giancarlo delivers a firsthand account of cryptocurrency's emergence from Washington's political crossfire. Drawing on his experience at the highest levels of financial regulation, Giancarlo explains how tokenization on public blockchains will transform stocks, bonds, mortgages, real estate, identity, and money itself.

The New Adventures of CryptoDad provides clear explanations of Bitcoin, stablecoins, and distributed ledgers, detailing what they are and how they represent a new phase of the Internet. Giancarlo takes readers inside pivotal meetings with world financial leaders and offers unique portraits of figures including Sam Bankman-Fried, David Sacks, Howard Lutnick, and President Trump.

Readers will also find:

• Behind-the-scenes accounts from the White House, Congress, and global financial centers including London, Tokyo, and Palo Alto
• Straightforward explanations of how the Internet of Value is transforming the architecture of banking and finance
• Insights into the political and competitive forces shaping cryptocurrency regulation across the Obama, Biden, and Trump Administrations
• An exploration of how tokenized digital assets could create a more efficient, transparent, and equitable global financial system
• Perspectives on protecting free enterprise and individual financial sovereignty against digital surveillance and centralized control

Written for the millions of cryptocurrency investors and anyone interested in financial technology, blockchain, or Washington policy, The New Adventures of CryptoDad equips readers to understand how crypto is reshaping banking and finance and to make more informed personal financial and investment decisions.
