本书是中国第一本从社会学角度对去中心化数字货币及区块链技术的社会信任问题进行系统性研究的作品。作者基于“制度—运行—文化”的结构性分析框架，揭示了社会信任从工业时代科层制模式的“集中式信任”，向信息时代网络化模式的“分布式信任”的革命性转型。

This book is the first work in China to conduct systematic research on the social trust of decentralized digital currency and blockchain technology from a sociological perspective. Based on the structural analysis framework of "system-operation-culture", the author reveals the revolutionary transformation of social trust from the "centralized trust" of the bureaucratic system model in the industrial age to the "distributed trust" of the networked model in the information age.（AI翻译）
