Why This Series Exists
Written for specialists. Assumes you already know the basics. Leaves you more confused than when you started.
Written by people with something to sell. The explanation serves the pitch, not the reader.
The Like a Kindergartner series starts from zero, builds up honestly, and leaves you genuinely informed — not just nodding along.
Book 1 — Available Now
You have heard of Bitcoin. You have nodded along in conversations about blockchain. You have watched people get rich — and watched others lose everything. But do you actually know how any of it works?
This book covers everything — from why money has value in the first place, to how a blockchain actually works, to what really happened when FTX collapsed, to how to protect yourself from the scams that have stolen billions from ordinary people.
All of it explained from the ground up. All of it accurate. None of it dumbed down.

About the Author
Etienne Basile is not a blockchain engineer or a Wall Street analyst.
He is someone who spent years investing in cryptocurrency, having the conversations, watching the headlines — and slowly realising that most of the people around him, including himself at the start, had no real idea how any of it actually worked.
The Like a Kindergartner series came from a simple frustration: the most important financial topics in the world are explained either by experts who have forgotten what it feels like not to know, or by hype artists with something to sell. Neither serves the person who just wants to actually understand.
Etienne writes from the learner's perspective — not to tell you what to do with your money, but to make sure you understand enough to decide for yourself.
