In [Digital Gold](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23546676-digital-gold) they recount him handing out [Debt - The First 5000 years](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6617037-debt) to help his friends understand bitcoin. It's what got me to read it.

I just learned today that Wences provided the seed funding for [Bitcoin OpTech](https://bitcoinops.org/en/about/). Pretty cool!

That was one of the first bitcoin books I read.

I was thumbing through [Digital Gold]( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23546676-digital-gold), and re-read this quote from Wences Casares regarding Jamie Dimon's attitude towards bitcoin:

> I think whatever Jamie does or doesn't do will be as relevant as what the postmaster general did or didn't do about e-mail. 

Great quote. I hope it is as relevant today as it was more than 10 years ago.
