The crypto market has emerged as one of the most complex and contested economic phenomena of the 21st century. Far from being merely a collection of digital assets or a technological novelty, it represents a distinct financial system shaped by new infrastructures, price formation mechanisms, risk dynamics, regulatory disputes, and power asymmetries. Understanding it requires moving beyond simplified explanations, speculative promises, or ideological narratives.
This book provides a comprehensive and rigorous analysis of the crypto market as a market, examining its internal structure, real-world functioning, liquidity mechanisms, recurring failures, and institutional implications. Readers are guided through how prices are formed, how cycles evolve, how risks propagate, how manipulation occurs, and how regulatory decisions shape the global financial environment.
Throughout the book, the crypto market is explored from technical, economic, behavioral, regulatory, and geopolitical perspectives. Topics include market microstructure, derivatives, leverage, stablecoins, custody, operational security, compliance, comparative regulatory regimes, and the ongoing institutionalization of the sector. The book also addresses, with clarity and sobriety, the genuine sources of return and the practical limits of profit-seeking in a volatile, high-risk environment.
