Good choices. There is a bitcoin beginners territory for precisely this type of content.
Atlas Shrugged
Mandibles
The Price of Tomorrow
After reading a shit ton of books about Bitcoin I couldn't recommend any other combo, they never go conspiranoical, never go about how everything else will fall and Bitcoin will be the only standing thing in the universe, they only talk about the fundamental workings of it and they are pretty concise.
BTW: I'm never recommending The Bitcoin Standard, it's a crappy book IMO.
Good list!
I hadn’t heard of 2 before. Based on the description it sounds like a very high level history of the backstory, plus a high level technical intro. If that’s accurate, it seems like the latter may overlap with Inventing Bitcoin. I think the backstory deserves a full book, and my go-to recommendation there is Digital Cash.
Layered Money is a great book. I think Broken Money fulfills a similar role but with better references for additional reading. Anyone truly passionate about the topic should read both.
I’ll be picking up the Suarez book since we seem to have similar standards (heh heh). If you’ve read either of my alternative recommendations I’m interested to hear your thoughts on how they compare.
I still have to read Broken Money, I'm waiting for an audiobook version to be available on Audible in my region since that's my jam, but yeah, I've heard great things about it, and now that you say that it closer to Layered Money than I might give it a read on paper instead of waiting for the audiobook to be available.
I recommend Alvaro's book for 2 reason's:
This is the first time I hear about Digital Cash, I might give it a read, but at this point I don't think it would give me any new information I don't already know heh heh.
The Communist Manifesto is a good one :p
the book of satoshi
1.) Bitcoin Billionaire
2.) Bitcoin Money
3.) The Sovereign Individual
Mastering Bitcoin
The Bitcoin Standard
Bitcoin Evangelism
Sovereignty through mathmatics
Why Bitcoin
Mastering bitcoin
Good choices! I'll add:
When Money Dies
The Seventh Property
21 Lessons
Grokking Bitcoin too!
I'd replace your #2 with Technological Revolutions and Financial Capital by Carlota Perez, a book a lot of bitcoiner "intellectuals" crib from without attribution.
This is the only bitcoin book i've read. Also i think the most popular.
The Bitcoin Standard - Saifedean Ammous
Bonus reading to understand the computer science behind the tech:
