From the story of Bitcoin, to a high-level overview of the technical stack, to depictions of some of the more unsavory characters involved in cryptocurrency - this book has it all. This story isn't just another book hyping up Bitcoin, but rather a balanced approach that covers the benefits, absurd claims, and what makes Bitcoin quite special. It covers how Bitcoin not only functions as this form of strange internet money, but the cults, cypherpunks, and social properties that keep it alive today. Essentially, it simultaneously cuts through all the noise and nonsense, and brings reality to the table (foundational principles, privacy, politics) in a way that has yet to be captured.
David's personal experiences in the book keep the story down to earth and make it quite relatable to any reader inside or outside the space. He is an excellent writer, and I would definitely place it as one of the best reads about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
