In today's digital society could people choose to not use traditional money? Could there be an all electronic currency without the backing of government? Has cryptography and our computational security advanced to the point that such a currency could be handled on a peer-to-peer basis with no third-party intervention?

In Bitcoin: Free Money or Fraud? Kyle Schurman breaks down the roots of this new digital currency and leads readers through the amazing things users have accomplished through bitcoin. This eBook leads readers through the risks involved with using the currency, debates and opinions, and the major players behind the unique and controversial digital “coin”.

    The key to such a system is limiting the amount of money that can be printed to the amount of gold that’s available.
