Mr Bitcoin

Part personal account, part practical guide, this book traces Mpho Dagada's missteps on his way to financial success. More than once he trusted Ponzi schemes and lost money, and he reflects on what those setbacks taught him about failure.

Mpho is one of South Africa's best-known cryptocurrency figures. As an undergraduate he launched his entrepreneurial career, later became a Bitcoin millionaire, and founded Invest In Future Currency, which runs courses to help the public take part in the growth of digital currency. He also works as a motivational speaker and runs businesses in transport and food.

The later sections focus on how to make money by trading cryptocurrencies and building a business around them, presenting Bitcoin as a route to wealth for readers willing to learn.
