Sinossi
Mr Clarke’s Adventures in Blockchain
A chain of unlikely events, dodgy cryptography, and tea-fuelled confusion.
Mr Clarke did not set out to become a distributed systems expert. He was, in fact, simply trying to renew his university parking permit. But as fate (and a suspiciously insistent intern) would have it, he soon finds himself dragged into a world of cryptographic puzzles, decentralised mayhem, and something called a Merkle tree that definitely isn't botanical.
From the bowels of university administration to the shadowy corridors of the Intercontinental Blockchain Agency, Mr Clarke stumbles from lecture to ledger, from Byzantine generals to dubious NFTs. Along the way, he meets academics, cyber-idealists, slightly sinister coders, and at least one goat.
Written with wit and clarity, and inspired by Mr Tompkins and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, this satirical journey into blockchain technology lifts the lid on buzzwords, busts through jargon, and gently mocks the madness of modern tech enthusiasm – all through the bewildered eyes of a man who just wants to get back to his office in time for lunch.
Ideal for readers with a curious mind, a dry sense of humour, and absolutely no intention of mining cryptocurrency.
