Overview

THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN CRYPTOCURRENCY FROM A TO Z by Donald Tavares-Donovan The U.S. crypto world is no longer just tech bros and hype coins - it's banks, laws, stablecoins, mining in Texas, staking taxes, scams on Telegram, and you trying not to get wiped out. This book is your field manual. ""The Encyclopedia of American Cryptocurrency from A to Z"" is the first plain-English, U.S.-focused guide to digital assets. It walks you through the major coins, platforms, laws, custody rules, scams, tax issues, and real risks that affect Americans today. No fluff. No hype. No ""get rich fast."" Just how it actually works here in the United States - and how to protect yourself. Inside, you'll learn: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, stablecoins, NFTs, staking, mining, Layer-2s, tokenization - explained in simple terms, in normal English. How U.S. exchanges, wallets, and ""earn"" platforms really work (and how some of them blew up and trapped customer funds). How American crypto regulation actually works: SEC vs CFTC, IRS rules, KYC, custody law, New York's BitLicense, Texas mining rules, Wyoming DAO law, and more. How to self-custody your crypto safely using hardware wallets - step one for true control. How scams actually target Americans, including fake ""support"" reps, guaranteed-yield traps, recovery scams, and romance/mentor scams. The exact red flags to walk away from before you lose everything. A U.S. state-by-state view of who welcomes crypto and who strangles it. A full glossary so you can talk this language without sounding lost. You'll also get: ""What You Can and Cannot Do in America Without Getting Hammered"" the most important legal reality check in the book. ""How Should I Hold My Crypto?"" a step-by-step custody flow for beginners, long-term holders, and people managing serious money. ""Future Outlook"" where U.S. crypto is actually going - stablecoins backed by Treasuries, bank-run blockchains, 24/7 settlement, and the fight over who controls the rails. Who this book is for: Everyday Americans who want to own crypto without getting scammed. New investors who want clear guidance instead of influencer hype. Founders and builders who plan to operate in the U.S. and don't want to step on a legal landmine. Anyone who watched platforms like Celsius, BlockFi, Voyager, and FTX collapse and said, ""Never again. I want to understand this before I touch it."" Why this book is different: 100% focused on America. This is not generic ""crypto is the future"" talk. This is ""Here's how it actually works under U.S. policy, U.S. tax rules, and U.S. enforcement."" Written for normal people, not engineers. No math degree required. Brutally honest about risk. We tell you, in plain language, how people lose their money - so you don't. This is not financial advice. This is financial protection. If you're planning to buy your first $100 of Bitcoin or you're already holding five figures on an exchange and feeling nervous, read this before you move another dollar.
