Decode Blockchain, Wallets and the evolving crypto economy

Routledge International Studies in Money and Banking

The Global Financial Crisis revealed that systemic fragility arises not only from identifiable risks but also from systemic uncertainty - the endogenous and often unpredictable dynamics that build up within financial systems and amplify across time and space. More than a decade later, this dual challenge remains pressing as the rising inequality and geopolitical insecurity have underscored the vulnerability of interconnected economies and societies.This book illustrates how agent-based modelling (ABM) can enrich the study of crises, systemic risk and uncertainty, and the distributional effects of policies that are designed to contain them. Rather than treating crises as external shocks, the book highlights how fragility can emerge endogenously within economies that are understood as complex, evolving systems. Through clear explanations and targeted applications, it not only demonstrates how ABM can capture the effects of macroprudential regulation on the real economy and inequality and shed light on moments of financial instability but also provides a practical guide to building such data-driven models in the first place. At the same time, it situates these insights within a broader discussion of contagion, procyclicality and global financial regulation, thus connecting the modelling results with ongoing debates on how best to safeguard financial stability. Further, it offers a valuable synthesis of lessons learned from advanced economies, illustrating how institutional design and macroprudential policy can strengthen financial resilience while also generating significant redistributive effects across sectors and households.The book is primarily aimed at an academic audience of scholars and advanced students in economics, finance and computational social science. It will also appeal to professionals in central banks, regulators and policymakers engaged in designing and evaluating macroprudential frameworks.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

The award-winning author of The Entrepreneurial State and Mission Economy offers a scathing indictment of a global financial system that incentivizes taking over making and extraction over creation "A stimulating analysis of the underlying causes of inequality and growth which forces us to confront long-held beliefs about how economies work and who benefits." -Martin Wolf, Financial Times The Value of Everything is a penetrating and passionate argument that modern capitalism has failed to clearly delineate between value creation and value extraction. As economist Mariana Mazzucato shows, from Silicon Valley to Wall Street and beyond, foggy notions of value create confusion between rents and profits, reward extractors rather than creators, and distort the measurements of growth and GDP. Asset management companies profit exorbitantly off of income generated elsewhere; big pharma uses value-based pricing to justify astronomically high prices for vital medicines that are publicly funded. In the process, innovation suffers and inequality widens. Now updated with a new preface, The Value of Everything reignites the debate over how we measure value in our society-and in so doing, shows how we can shape our economy to be more innovative and inclusive.

The Value of Everything

Phenomenal World Books

A revelatory history of how the Federal Reserve finances American power. Central banks, we are told, are economic superpowers that must remain independent of modern democratic governments. The US Federal Reserve's presumed insulation from politics affords it autonomy and credibility to control inflation and promote economic stability--or so the story goes. In The Fiscal Fed, Will Bateman offers a deeply sourced, empirical history that shows the Fed's primary function is actually, and has always been, fiscal--sustaining the market for Treasury borrowing that makes up the difference between federal spending and federal revenue. Bateman combs Fed meeting transcripts, staff notes, financial accounts, and legal documents to trace loans and public-debt purchases since the central bank's founding. The result is a milestone work that reveals how, for most of the Fed's history, its transactions were aimed at government financing--either by providing cheap credit to close budget gaps or by manipulating yields on government debt. The Fed's support for government finance is a feature, not a bug, of American economic institutions.

How the Us Central Bank Funds Government

The Fiscal Fed

From the author of A People's Guide to Capitalism, a clear-eyed look at cryptocurrencies from the left, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism. 
 
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a $3.7 trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are disaffected by an economic and financial system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative. 
 
Challenge any of these notions, or raise concerns about crypto's associations with money laundering, the speculative bubbles ballooning around these assets, or the disastrous climate implications of the technology behind crypto, and you'll be told by proselytizers that you simply don't understand. That complexity is often intentional, serving as a shield from critical scrutiny. 
 
Enter Crypto-Capitalism, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters. 
 
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she opens up alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually look like.

The New Financial Dystopia

Crypto-Capitalism

When a currency dies, it does not expire from natural causes. It is systematically dismantled by the very institutions sworn to protect it.We live in an era characterized by unprecedented global credit expansion, sovereign debt burdens that dwarf gross domestic product, and central bank balance sheets that have been permanently leveraged to underwrite fiscal deficits. The contemporary policy debates in Washington, Brussels, and Beijing are filled with the same comforting narratives that echoed through history: that this time is different, that liquidity is synonymous with solvency, and that central bank omnipotence can indefinitely defer the day of reckoning.A History of Currency Collapse by economic analyst Michael Haller delivers a clinical anatomy of monetary failure across three distinct civilizational theaters. As a deep-dive analysis of macroeconomic history, this work is not a mere recitation of archival tragedies; it is a diagnostic field manual for the modern investor looking to protect capital before the music stops. Inside this comprehensive volume, you will trace the geometric patterns of monetary failure: <ul> <li></li><li>Part 1: The Chinese Paradigm - From the world's first paper money ("jiaozi") in the Song and Yuan Dynasties to the deflationary prelude of the Great Depression, the catastrophic rise and fall of the Nationalist "fabi", and the final asset-confiscating crisis of the Gold Yuan.</li> <li></li><li>Part 2: Weimar's Reckoning - A look beneath the "Golden Twenties" to examine the Printing Press Paradox, the "Great Erasure" that devoured savers, and how industrialists like Hugo Stinnes shorted a dying currency to capture real wealth.</li> <li></li><li>Part 3: The Ruble's Ruin - An examination of Tsarist monetary chaos, the weaponized hyperinflation of War Communism (1918-1921), and the institutional thresholds of the gold-backed chervonets.</li> </ul> Actionable Insights for Contemporary PortfoliosHyperinflation is not an egalitarian storm; it is a predatory mechanism of wealth redistribution. This book provides a cold-eyed re-evaluation of risk for your current portfolio. It demonstrates why traditional "risk-free" assets like sovereign government bonds become instruments of guaranteed capital destruction under chronic monetary debasement, and guides you toward the structural necessity of regime-diversification.The script is ancient. The patterns are structural. The warnings are clear. Read this history and adjust your sails before the wheelbarrows appear on the streets.Scroll up and secure your copy of A History of Currency Collapse today.
