My Crypto Security Abc

An increasing number of people are buying, using or trading cryptocurrencies which makes it that much more important to know how to use and store them in a secure manner as explained in this handbook. What will you find out: How and where can you securely store your cryptocurrency coins/tokens? How do you correctly create your personal cryptocurrency wallet (example with MyEtherWallet)? How do you unlock your personal cryptocurrency wallet and find its public key or address? How do you properly and securely store your password, keystore file and private key? How do you securely check the balance on your personal cryptocurrency wallet? How do you securely access your personal cryptocurrency wallet and exchanges? How to properly protect your exchange account? How do you securely send cryptocurrency coins/tokens? The world has been changing with the speed of light. Every single day brings about new findings and solutions that have a significant impact on our lives, which can easily include the blockchain technology that can be used in several aspects of modern-day life. Blockchain technology has facilitated the creation of cryptocurrencies which have been on the march since the presentation of Bitcoin in 2009 and which have experienced a real boom in less than 8 years. This facilitation resulted in the creation of a parallel and decentralised financial market that exists solely in digital form but whose nominal value can be easily transferred to our material world. At the point of creation of this handbook, the cryptocurrency market is not yet regulated, which has been reflected in practice by highly speculative investments on the one hand and vulnerability to fraud, theft and similar adverse actions on the other, which, however, do not deter people from entering it. Quite the contrary: the potential for extremely high profits has been piquing the interest of an increasing number of investors who, at least as far as our experience has shown, too frequently forget to ensure their security by lacking the required awareness or knowledge. As such, they are preyed upon by conmen and thieves or they lose their cryptocurrency coins/tokens in part or in full. You are ultimately responsible for the security of your cryptocurrency coins / tokens! The main purpose of this handbook is not to tell its readers in-depth on how the blockchain technology, trading, exchanges, etc. operate, but to provide basic information with a focus on security. You should consider this handbook as a driving school intended for people who want to drive along the paths of the cryptocurrency world and survive without incurring anymajor accidents, injuries or losses. Since the number of cryptocurrencies and their storage options by far exceed the scope of this handbook, specific terms have been defined solely for the Ethereum blockchain used by the majority of cryptocurrenciesat the point of creation thereof. However, this shall not be construed as favouritism of some or disregard for other cryptocurrencies and projects, but the selection has been made solely to prevent the handbook from overflowing from data which would have made it too long and nontransparent.

Blockchain technology has great potential to radically change our socio-economic systems by guaranteeing secure transactions between untrusted entities, reducing costs, and simplifying many processes. However, employing blockchain techniques in sustainable applications development for smart cities still has some technical challenges and limitations. Blockchain Technologies for Sustainable Development in Smart Cities investigates blockchain-enabled technology for smart city developments and big data applications. This book provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area. Covering topics such as digital finance, smart city technology, and data processing architecture, this book is an essential reference for electricians, policymakers, local governments, city committees, computer scientists, IT professionals, professors and students of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

This work argues that current cryptocurrency regulation, particularly in the areas of enforcement and compliance, is inadequate. It proposes reflexive regulation as an alternative approach. This book provides strategies for a reflexive regulation approach to cryptocurrencies, developed through the identification of the internal self-regulatory mechanisms of the cryptocurrency system. Apportioning blame for current problems to the regulators’ failure to take into account the inherent technical features of cryptocurrencies, the work promotes reflexive regulation in which the law acts at a subsystem-specific level to install, correct, and redefine democratic self-regulatory mechanisms. It provides strategies for this approach, developed through the identification of the internal self-regulatory mechanisms of the cryptocurrency system. These are identified as imbedded in the technical functionality of computer code and consensus-based distributive governance mechanisms respectively. In addition to providing a technical, historical and legal overview of cryptocurrencies, the book concludes by providing recommendations aimed at redirecting code and consensus towards achieving regulatory goals. In this way, it draws from the theory of reflexive law, in order to provide both a substantive and jurisprudential perspective on the regulation of cryptocurrencies and to illustrate how Financial Technology (Fintech) regulation can only be effective once regulators consider both the ‘Fin’ and the ‘tech’ in their regulatory approaches. The book will be of interest to researchers, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of Financial Regulation and Jurisprudence, Financial Crime, Banking Regulation, Information Systems, and Information Technology.
