商品描述
This book explores how blockchain-based digital assets, particularly Bitcoin, are disrupting traditional financial and audit environments by introducing new levels of complexity and transparency. It presents the Assertion-Based Audit Framework (BTC_AF), a structured, International Standards on Auditing-aligned methodology that enables auditors to obtain reliable and re-performable evidence directly from the Bitcoin blockchain. By leveraging blockchain's core features--cryptographic integrity, immutability, and decentralization--the framework enhances audit quality, consistency, and stakeholder confidence. Developed through a design science approach and validated in real-world scenarios, BTC_AF addresses critical assurance challenges such as asset existence, rights, valuation, and custody. This pioneering work bridges the gap between blockchain technology and professional auditing, laying the groundwork for auditing other emerging digital asset classes.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討基於區塊鏈的數位資產,特別是比特幣,如何通過引入新的複雜性和透明度來顛覆傳統的金融和審計環境。它提出了基於聲明的審計框架(Assertion-Based Audit Framework,簡稱 BTC_AF),這是一種結構化的、符合國際審計標準的方法論,使審計師能夠直接從比特幣區塊鏈獲取可靠且可重複的證據。通過利用區塊鏈的核心特性——加密完整性、不可變性和去中心化——該框架提高了審計質量、一致性和利益相關者的信心。BTC_AF 是通過設計科學方法開發的,並在現實場景中進行了驗證,解決了資產存在、權利、估值和保管等關鍵保證挑戰。這項開創性工作彌合了區塊鏈技術與專業審計之間的鴻溝,為審計其他新興數位資產類別奠定了基礎。
