I read a big chunk of Bitcoin is Venice on a return flight from Cairo a week ago, and damn is that a good book. I am biased in its favor because I did MMA w/ jujitsu for over a decade so naturally I loved the opening chapters about that subject, but still. Really, really good.

I haven't sorted out details yet but people should read "Bitcoin is Venice" if they haven't. I only read half of it on a plane so far, amid various other books that want my attention, but damn this is a good one and I plan to finish it. It competes for the top category slot.

Much more than a Bitcoin book imo... its breadth is impressive. Definitely an economics textbook worthy of study for any economics student.

Great book. Read it.

I can now with certainty say that @allenf32 and @sacha_meyers did a great job with this book. I highly recommend it!

Recommend part 3 of this essay series: [link] Expanded in this book: [link] Bitcoin (not “crypto”) is a unique sociological and political phenomena, with a very different cultural ethos than goldbugs. I think you’ll agree with much of it.

Would highly suggest the new book Bitcoin is Venice, which explores this subject matter in great detail, have a feeling you might like it

22/ In the book’s crescendo, chapter six, “Bitcoin Is Venice,” we get a clarion call for a better future: more inclusive, less exploitative, filled with choice and reason and compassion.

This book by @allenf32 and @sacha_meyers is a work of staggering genius and my favorite thing written about Bitcoin. It is rich, deep, challenging, fair, provocative, and immensely educational. My recommendation is to begin your journey immediately 💡
