Blockchain: A Hype or a Hoax? fills a gap in the book market to
provide material that is not only technical but also caters to
business readers. This book was written to keep in mind various
stakeholders and the current gap in blockchain education as well as
use case implementation. This book reviews blockchain technology,
discusses why proof of concept fails, offers examples of use cases
that have been successful and that have failed and articulates a
framework that should be used before deciding whether blockchain is
the right technology for transformation. It uses strategic models
and frameworks to assist organisations to see a fit score for their
specific use cases. This book provides guidance on how to create a
blockchain strategy and a business case to pitch for the budget. It
also includes a case study to apply the knowledge on practical use
cases for blockchain and a technical overview of most of the
blockchain use cases in the market including crypto, non-fungible
tokens, decentralised finance, and decentralised autonomous
organisations, as well as financial and non-financial industry use
cases. This book also provides a detailed overview of most of the
mainstream blockchain products currently available in the market.
It also offers guidance on how readers can best educate themselves
on blockchain technology that is available through commercial and
free resources. It concludes with a clear direction on selecting
blockchain to solve real-life use cases that are best fit. A
financial and non-financial value-adding framework is discussed
throughout this book to assist business leaders, programme
managers, product managers and information technology leaders to
make strategic choices, and business cases and develop strategies
for digital transformation through the use of blockchain. The
distinctive feature of this book is the critical analysis of
blockchain from a technology and business perspective. This is the
first book to focus on business, technology and blockchain
selection framework. The most unique feature of this book would be
to apply Michael Porter's competitive advantage strategy theory on
blockchain use cases and their impact on companies. This book is
aimed at technology students, technology professionals, blockchain
and fintech consultant and business leaders. It will also be useful
for readers who are building a business case to adopt blockchain
into an organisation or are seeking to grow their knowledge of
blockchain and improve their fintech strategy.
