Very interesting

I was someone who didn’t know anything about bitcoin before. This book contains lots of info about why we should invest and the history. The first hour or so is very repetitive but gets better after. I also wish it contained more technical information and how and where to buy it. But there isn’t anything about this. Although the narration is really good the quality of sound isn’t as good as all my other book. Sounds like they didn’t record it in a sound proof room. And places where audio is edited together, I can hear white noise. But all in all still 5 stars

Informative but very one sided

I thoroughly enjoyed the listen and learned alot from it but I feel like it is a bit one sided and extremely biased towards the benefit of bitcoin
... And overlooks the elephant on the room that is the huge environmental impact of mining bitcoin this is a huge issue for many..
I still recommend the listent as I learned alot

Easy language a f*ckwit like me can understand.

I'm really impressed by the way such a complex subject is conveyed in such simple terms that a total f*ckiwit such as myself can understand it. I do have a background in computing, but I've never taken any interest in cryptocurrencies. I remember sitting at my desk in London around 2012 wondering whether or not to buy a bitcoin for the fun of it, but of course, I steered clear of it.

Roll forward a few years and I'm living in Japan, I'm worried about the value of my money in the bank ... and then last weekend I saw the price of bitcoin take a dive. Thought to myself, okay, maybe now is the time to start investing. So I signed up for an online course in cryptocurrencies and thought I'd buy this book to supplement what I already knew, perhaps learn something I didn't. Well, lets just say I learned more from this book than any amount of researching I'd already done. I'd read Yuval Noah Harari's books before, so understanding the concept of money as a legal fiction might have given me a bit of a head-start in some areas of this book; but my god it's clarified a whole load of stuff I hadn't got figured out before.

I may not have grown into a cast iron HODLer yet, but I've definitely started a recurring payment plan into bitcoin ... and I'm looking into investing some of my cash into gold and silver. My fears of inflation seem to have been right, so I'm hedging against the fiat currencies. As most people in finance say, "don't invest what you can't afford to lose" ... I think that's a sound strategy, but then again, what will I lose if I don't might be a better question.

If you have no knowledge of BTC this book is for u

an excellent book for those without knowledge who seek knowledge. The book explains with simple and relevant examples how BTC came about why it's important and the role of money in politics and asset gathering. For people with no knowledge about how many actually works this book is invaluable and should really be used in schools it's simple to understand and the narration is also pleasant on the ear. I chose this book for a book club of black women all 50 plus It made fascinating Reading for us still fluent in a Fiat world thank you so much for writing the book.

Amazing book

I didn’t know what to expect from this book, being new to Bitcoin.
It was packed with information, history and a great overall view of what’s happening with bitcoin and what makes it such a valuable asset.
Would recommend to anybody who wants to learn about crypto

Great addition to any Bitcoin education

An interesting addition to the main Bitcoin bible. Definitely worth adding to one's Bitcoin library.
