Best online trading e-commmerce books according to redditors

To those of you who are trading ETH, but aren't as familiar with the underlying tech of Ethereum as you'd like...

Read this book.

I just finished it because I wanted to be sure my foundational knowledge of the tech and Solidity were up to snuff. It's a cross disciplinary explanation of the tech, economics, and use cases of Ethereum. It's not a dry tech-manual, and is a rather quick read.

Side note for the lulz:

If you come from bitcoin land, you'll recognize the author of this upcoming tome.

According to Amazon.com, it's available for pre-order and will release on July 25, 2017. Of course this may or may not be accurate. Cheers!

Only one I’m aware of is the pre-order for Andreas’ new book Mastering Ethereum - but that’s not out til early next year:

Mastering Ethereum: Building Smart Contracts and Dapps

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1491971940/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_B5bJzbCPSARX2

Lol, I think Gavin Wood & Andreas kind of have that covered.

  But, the internet is also your best resource.
  

oh no mate, stay away from the source as much as possible. I'd say distance yourself from the "developer high-horse" as much as possible. Lol, I made up that term but hoepfully you get what I mean.
Just start with the basics, blockchains, POW/POS consensus algorithms and then move on to the nitty gritty. I actually found a really noob-friendly guide somewhere which made everything much clearer to me.
Also, check out these books. They are for ether/bitcoin but this will give you lots of vaulable info about developing for any crypto-currency. Also afaik Omise is also using Ethereum Blockchain for now.

Some time this year.

This sub is full of skeptics that don't have any foresight to think ahead. They are like people in the 90's looking at the web with all its crazy marquees and gifs on websites saying this is a waste of time because their encyclopedias do a better job. If you actually want to learn about it. Pick up a book and use the actual technology.

Not out yet but figured I'd let you know.

John Bogle's Little Book of Common Sense Investing is available in Spanish.

If they don't have need of the absolute basics, I think this would be a good read. The American retirement "system" is fundamentally different from many/most other countries.

don't forget about the $2,500,000(12,500ETH) in burned ETH here too!

https://etherscan.io/address/0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead

etherscan has it listed as the ENS burn address but I read in Mastering Ethereum that it was the default burn address.

He co-authored Mastering Ethereum https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Ethereum-Building-Smart-Contracts/dp/1491971940

It is not in the specs. Its not mandatory. It is in this SEO book http://www.amazon.com/Get-Top-Google-Techniques-Rankings/dp/1857885023 and it is something that is frequently said by SEO "experts". The "certain amount" of H2s and H3s are said in this book. Its not a standards thing its an SEO thing.

Here is a random page on the internet:
http://www.hobo-web.co.uk/headers/

Just google SEO one h1 per page and you'll find a lot of people saying it.

I'm sure it is a good read but is this document in the public domain? I can see it on amazon for .99c

EDIT: nevermind - just noticed the CC license. Thanks for sharing!

This O'Reilly book won't by published until this summer, but I'll be looking out for it.

>This article goes into a lot of details, the lowdown is

wow. the article is really in depth. it will take me a while to go through that one though. thanks for sharing.

​

>I'd ditch currency hedged funds do a mix of
>
>1. Euro bonds
>
>2. Unhedged global bonds

Robert Carver in the Smart Portfolios is of the opinion that hedged funds should be avoided. Mostly due to hedging, carry, transaction and TER costs. There he also recommends investing in unhedged global bonds.

I'd personally rather not have currency fluctuation in the stable part of the portfolio. My preferred option would be eurozone government bonds. That is similar to Lars Kroijer's Rational Portfolio (but he uses short-term government bonds from your high credit quality government). But the low yields, coupled with concentration risk in debt from places like Italy (~ 23%) is worrisome. A global bond fund mitigates the concentration risk but you get less predictability on potential returns (from a YTM standpoint)

> I'd sit on it until you know your job situation... it can take more than a couple of months to find a good job.

+1

In the meantime see if any libraries near you have Tim Hale's Smarter Investing. Alternatively the Bogleheads book might be good.

EDIT: I would guess Lars Kroijer's book is probably quite good, too. He has a little series on YouTube that's sound.

To an extent but not really. He demonstrates some basic solidity programming, but his goal is to provide a thorough explanation of Ethereum, it's uses, and why it differs from other public chains that non-technical people can understand too.

If you want something more technical check this one out https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Ethereum-Building-Smart-Contracts/dp/1491971940/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1497024427&sr=8-4&keywords=Ethereum

Edit: I know it's not out yet, but it will be one of the better references out there.

This guy isn't half bad if you want one now.

There’s plenty of online resources that dives deep into each thing that guide suggests .. but given how quickly this space moves, things may quickly be outdated. There’s no one course or one place for this, unfortunately.

As for a textbook, would highly recommend Mastering Ethereum by Andreas Antonopulous and Gavin Woods:

https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/1491971940/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_d3j5CbVGJ12KY

I also listen to some podcasts like Unchained, zero knowledge, Crypto Basics etc - they are not really dev oriented but pretty good to keep a ear on the ground on what’s happening in the space while stuck in traffic.

you have to be very careful of scams. This book may help.

Introducing Solidity and Ethereum is alright. For now I would just look into the documentation of Solidity, Truffle, geth, Web3 etc. Mastering Ethereum looks super promising, as it's written by Gavin Wood (co-founder of Ethereum, made Solidity) as well as Andreas Antonopoulos (wrote Mastering Bitcoin). It's supposed to come out later this year.

The problem is that these tools change so fast that books might be outdated by the time you read or get them. It doesn't help that this is such a new field. Even the documentation sometimes isn't up to date.

He wrote this book https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Ethereum-Building-Smart-Contracts/dp/1491971940

and often talks about how wonderful ETH smart contracts are which is absurd.

I've heard opinions that Trade Mindfully (https://www.amazon.com/Trade-Mindfully-Performance-Mindfulness-Psychology/dp/1118445619) is much better. Anyone read that one?

Yes it is https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Ethereum-Building-Smart-Contracts/dp/1491971940

The thought has crossed my mind. I am a big fan of passive income, and it certainly would be a fine use of the unoccupied portions of my days at work. With so many books on the market essentially saying the same thing about selling online, I feel like I might get lost in the crowd. For now, the blog will suffice. I write what I feel are useful posts for a target audience, who in turn generate a small bit of disposable income for me when they purchase items through my affiliate links. Some look down upon affiliate links, but I see them as a trade-off. I give out high quality information for free and hopefully persuade my readers to adopt (or at least consider) my methods, which kick back a tiny bit of green my way.

What would you pay for a solid e-book on flipping? $0.99? $2.99? $9.99? $49.99? The retail on some of the titles are insane. I think $2.99 for something like [Barcode Booty] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004X6UN4K/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004X6UN4K&linkCode=as2&tag=teaccom-20) is probably a worthwhile investment. Even though you could get practically all that information for free from Google, it's nice when somebody takes the time to put it together in a condensed, easily read format. However, I think anyone who can find this subreddit can probably uncover most of that information just by reading a few threads and asking a few questions.
