Müllenmeister J: Chancen und Risiken von
Kryptowährungen am Beispiel Bitcoin

Chancen und Risiken von Kryptowährungen am Beispiel Bitcoin

Chancen und Risiken der digitalen Währung

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.

Crypto-Capitalism

What can a Roman coin, a Chumash shell necklace, and a Bitcoin tell us about world history? This book traces the surprising life of money across centuries and civilizations. The Daily Life of Money in History offers an eye-opening look at how humans have exchanged value across time and cultures. Each of the 150 entries explores a single object-beautifully illustrated and deeply contextualized-to uncover how people bought, sold, traded, saved, and survived through the ages. Designed with researchers, educators, students, and curious readers in mind, this richly visual volume brings together cultural history, economic life, and global exchange in a highly accessible format. Each object includes origin details, historical purchasing power, and its legacy today-making it an ideal reference for classrooms, libraries, and history lovers alike.

This book outlines a practical framework for implementing a resilient circular economy principle across ten major industries in a developed country. It focuses on integrating circular thinking into supply chain management and applying digital transformation, blockchain technologies, and Industry 4.0 and 5.0 tools to improve sustainability and productivity.The book introduces a three-platform model that categorizes supply chain elements, aligns technologies with organizational goals, and supports lean and agile manufacturing practices. It also incorporates quantum economics to address uncertainty in economic modeling—an emerging approach that enhances the reliability of circular economy strategies.Expert evaluations are used to score performance matrices across industries, helping prioritize technologies and assess their impact. The book also applies quality engineering methods such as quality function deployment and value engineering to guide decision-making.Readers will gain a clear understanding of how circular supply chain components contribute to a resilient circular economy goal, how emerging technologies support these efforts, and how uncertainty modeling can improve real-world applications. This book would be a useful read for researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking structured methods to support a large-scale resilient circular economy initiative.

A Comprehensive Introduction

Financial Technology

Contributions to Finance and Accounting

Financial crime in the digital era has become more complex, sophisticated, and pervasive. With the increasing use of technology and digital platforms, criminals are exploiting new methods to commit fraud, money laundering, identity theft, and other financial crimes.&nbsp;Combating financial crime in the digital era requires a multifaceted approach involving technological innovations, regulatory measures, international collaboration, and the education of both consumers and financial institutions. As the landscape of financial crime evolves, the tools and strategies to combat it must adapt.This book highlights the idea that combating financial crime in the digital era is a complex task that requires the use of cutting-edge technology, effective regulations, and collaborative efforts among governments, financial institutions, and consumers. While the digital landscape provides opportunities for criminals to exploit new vulnerabilities, this book also offers tools that, if used effectively, can help detect, prevent, and disrupt financial crimes. The key to success lies in staying ahead of criminals by continuously evolving strategies, strengthening systems, and fostering international cooperation to protect the integrity of global financial systems.

Innovative Approaches to Preventing Financial Fraud

Financial Crime in the Digital Era

Blockchain Technology in Water Management and New Energy Economy explores the transformative role of blockchain in addressing two of the most pressing global challenges: efficient water resource management and the transition to a sustainable energy future. As climate change, population growth, and urbanization exert increasing pressure on natural resources, traditional systems for managing water and energy are proving inadequate. This book presents blockchain as a powerful enabler of transparency, decentralization, and trust in resource governance, offering innovative solutions that can reshape these critical sectors. The book is divided into two major sections. The first focuses on water management, covering how blockchain can enhance monitoring, prevent water theft, support real-time quality assessments, and enable equitable distribution through smart contracts. It examines case studies where decentralized ledger technology has improved water conservation, optimized irrigation systems in agriculture, and facilitated peer-to-peer water trading.The second section delves into the new energy economy, highlighting blockchain's potential in supporting renewable energy integration, smart grids, decentralized energy markets, and carbon credit tracking. It discusses how blockchain can empower consumers to become "prosumers" - both producing and consuming energy - while maintaining secure and traceable transactions. Additionally, the book explores cross-cutting themes such as data privacy, regulatory challenges, scalability, and the socio-economic impact of blockchain adoption. Through real-world examples, technical insights, and forward-looking perspectives, this book provides a comprehensive guide for researchers, policy makers, engineers, and sustainability advocates seeking to understand and apply blockchain technology for a greener and more resource-efficient future.
