Abstract

The previous book chapters followed a pedagogical approach, which entailed laying out facts and building up knowledge systematically on topical points of focus. This disciplined approach becomes unavoidable in a book about methodology, and more so in a relatively new field where concepts have been evolving rather chaotically, being discovered and getting accepted together with the field itself. Having explained concepts in some detail, and hopefully convinced the reader about the importance of a consistent analysis and design methodology in the first place, we now come to a point where it is expedient to place them within a “bigger picture” so to speak. The purpose of this chapter is to put the current state of affairs in the crypto-market into a perspective, that is, to help the reader interpret it as an evolutionary stage along appropriate axes. It is not an attempt to justify its existence at all, but rather an explanation of why and how this market appeared and reached the state that it did, why in the general timeframe that it did, and how it could evolve.
