A balanced mixture of hard science and bold speculation, Blockchain Wars is the definitive guide to both the present and the future of blockchain technology.

Big Tech’s 21st century dominance over the Internet is being challenged. Today’s technology headlines are filled with terms such as bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and Web3, while separately making frequent mention of Big Tech’s censorship, antitrust, and microtargeting. At the middle ground between these topics is a secret war taking place between FAAMG and decentralized technologies over the Internet of tomorrow. Its outcome will determine the fortunes of corporations, institutions, governments, and individuals. At this future’s foundation is the promising concept of blockchain, whose precise definition and applications have remained frustratingly elusive.

Evan McFarland deploys an encyclopedic grasp of the blockchain landscape to help fit together the pieces of a puzzle that, once solved, will help us improve our daily lives, as well as the trajectory of modern technologies.

Evan McFarland believes the parallels between tech giants and the blockchain industry have never been adequately drawn, which carries dire global ramifications.

Through synthesizing findings from hundreds of widely dispersed computer science experts, Evan answers deep-seated questions about Internet technologies that adept technologists never even think to ask. Evan currently serves as an advisor to several blockchain startups while pursuing independent efforts geared toward proving that the blockchain Internet is simple and scalable enough for anyone to code unstoppable Internet services and pan-industry platforms without dependencies or permissions.
