"Decoding DeFi: From Blockchain Basics to Advanced Strategies" is your definitive resource for understanding and navigating the revolutionary world of decentralized finance. Whether you're new to DeFi or an experienced participant, this book covers everything from fundamental concepts to advanced strategies, regulatory challenges, and future trends. The journey begins with a clear definition of DeFi, exploring its origins, historical milestones, and key concepts that underpin the ecosystem. Readers gain insights into the foundational technologies such as blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and smart contracts, essential for understanding how DeFi operates autonomously and transparently. The book then dives into the core components of DeFi, including decentralized exchanges (DEXs), lending protocols, stablecoins, and liquidity provision. Each section provides in-depth explanations, use cases, and strategic insights that equip readers with practical knowledge to participate effectively in DeFi markets. Technical analysis is crucial in DeFi trading, and the book covers essential tools and indicators such as Moving Averages, Relative Strength Index (RSI), Bollinger Bands, MACD, and chart patterns like Head and Shoulders and Triangles. Readers learn how to apply technical analysis to make informed trading decisions and manage risk effectively. Complementing technical analysis, fundamental analysis is explored to assess the intrinsic value and potential of DeFi projects. Readers discover how to evaluate market capitalization, trading volumes, and other economic indicators crucial for making sound investment choices in the dynamic DeFi landscape. Risk management strategies are paramount in DeFi due to its decentralized nature and exposure to smart contract risks, hacking, and regulatory uncertainties. The book provides comprehensive guidance on risk assessment, mitigation strategies, compliance requirements, and the importance of auditing and testing protocols. Yield farming and liquidity provision strategies are demystified, offering readers practical approaches to optimize returns while managing risks in various DeFi protocols. The emergence of DeFi index funds is also discussed, highlighting their benefits and risks as diversified investment vehicles within the DeFi ecosystem. Navigating the regulatory landscape is essential for anyone involved in DeFi.

“Blockchains will matter crucially; this book, beautifully and clearly written for a wide audience, powerfully demonstrates how.” —Lawrence Lessig “Attempts to do for blockchain what the likes of Lawrence Lessig and Tim Wu did for the Internet and cyberspace—explain how a new technology will upend the current legal and social order... Blockchain and the Law is not just a theoretical guide. It’s also a moral one.” —Fortune Bitcoin has been hailed as an Internet marvel and decried as the preferred transaction vehicle for criminals. It has left nearly everyone without a computer science degree confused: how do you “mine” money from ones and zeros? The answer lies in a technology called blockchain. A general-purpose tool for creating secure, decentralized, peer-to-peer applications, blockchain technology has been compared to the Internet in both form and impact. Blockchains are being used to create “smart contracts,” to expedite payments, to make financial instruments, to organize the exchange of data and information, and to facilitate interactions between humans and machines. But by cutting out the middlemen, they run the risk of undermining governmental authorities’ ability to supervise activities in banking, commerce, and the law. As this essential book makes clear, the technology cannot be harnessed productively without new rules and new approaches to legal thinking. “If you...don’t ‘get’ crypto, this is the book-length treatment for you.” —Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution “De Filippi and Wright stress that because blockchain is essentially autonomous, it is inflexible, which leaves it vulnerable, once it has been set in motion, to the sort of unforeseen consequences that laws and regulations are best able to address.” —James Ryerson, New York Times Book Review

Cryptography is now ubiquitous – moving beyond the traditional environments, such as government communications and banking systems, we see cryptographic techniques realized in Web browsers, e-mail programs, cell phones, manufacturing systems, embedded software, smart buildings, cars, and even medical implants. Today's designers need a comprehensive understanding of applied cryptography. After an introduction to cryptography and data security, the authors explain the main techniques in modern cryptography, with chapters addressing stream ciphers, the Data Encryption Standard (DES) and 3DES, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), block ciphers, the RSA cryptosystem, public-key cryptosystems based on the discrete logarithm problem, elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC), digital signatures, hash functions, Message Authentication Codes (MACs), and methods for key establishment, including certificates and public-key infrastructure (PKI). Throughout the book, the authors focus on communicating the essentials and keeping the mathematics to a minimum, and they move quickly from explaining the foundations to describing practical implementations, including recent topics such as lightweight ciphers for RFIDs and mobile devices, and current key-length recommendations. The authors have considerable experience teaching applied cryptography to engineering and computer science students and to professionals, and they make extensive use of examples, problems, and chapter reviews, while the book’s website offers slides, projects and links to further resources. This is a suitable textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses and also for self-study by engineers.
