It's funny, I wrote Stealing Worlds before blockchain got turned into a pyramid scheme. Now I keep getting blasted for describing the potential of what was then cutting-edge tech being developed by friends whom I trusted.

Blockchain is at its heart a way of giving digital objects some of the characteristics of real-world objects--such as uniqueness, location, stable properties. The book tried to imagine what we could do with that ability.
