About this listen
"Epic. The first great book about crypto." (Andrew Keys, Managing Partner, DARMA Capital)
"A highly dramatic but lucid introduction to the murky world of
cryptocurrency." (Kirkus Reviews)
At the start of this riveting memoir, Dan Conway is a brash young executive in a vast corporation, slogging his way up the ladder while struggling with depression and an addiction he thought he had defeated long ago. As he begins to realize that the mix of nightmarish bureaucracy and his unruly “flip side” have doomed any chance of success, Dan stumbles upon cryptocurrency, tumbling down the rabbit hole to discover a strange, anarchic, but captivating world. He decides to wager everything - his savings, his marriage, his family, his future - on the fledgling crypto, Ether.
In Confessions of a Crypto Millionaire, listeners join Dan on this rollicking, harrowing, frequently hilarious journey, including his:
- Struggle to rise through the corporate ranks
- Battle with addiction and its aftermath
- Bid to reinvent himself
- Efforts to hold his marriage and family together
- And the costs - and thrills - of risking it all.
“For Conway, crypto was only partly about the money. It was also about finding liberation and salvation.” (Forbes)
Dan details in a non-technical and non-preachy way how the idea of blockchain-based decentralization has convinced a generation of dreamers, misfits, and gamblers to too often bet more than they can afford to lose. He illustrates how public blockchains like Ethereum could disrupt the nature of work itself in the coming years, upending stultifying centralized corporations in favor of “trust machines” and peer-to-peer cooperation. In the process, listeners take a thrilling ride with Conway on a turbocharged adventure through crypto, not knowing if he will make history or lose everything he holds dear.

Unbelievable story
This book definitely doesn’t teach you how to trade or vastly improve your life but the story is so gripping it constantly has you wanting to keep going, this has to be the best audio book I’ve listened to so far and couldn’t recommend it more to anyone with the slightest interest in cryptocurrency. The story is super intriguing and is constantly exciting while also teaching you a thing or two. It makes you review yourself in a way that motivates you to do better and also be careful along the way
10/10 100%

Great story. Easy to relate to the work life drag
Great success story. You gotta risk it for the biscuit. Everyone that hasn't quite made it to the safety blanket life of bulk cash can relate to this successful attempt at rising above it all.

not very good value for money but can say it was
interesting ->
Basically the story is about how a guy got lucky. First getting a huge payout from the company he worked for and then putting it into Ether towards the beginning of the greatest giant ponzi scheme in human history. The fact that he cashes out to the USD essentially means it is fundamentally a useless asset. These decentralised tokens like Bitcoin Ether etc are supposed to REPLACE the USD. So if it is meant to REPLACE the USD then no one should convert it to the USD ever. The fact that everyone is just in it for the ride eventually with the objective to convert to USD after making a profit as more suckers come to support the price for the earlier people to cash out, means that it is not doing what is supposed to do. Also I had always suspected there were people who were marketing it, basically it is just a giant marketing of a ponzi scheme similar to other schemes in the past. At least now I have some insights from the man himself on how the marketing was done.
