Book
Ten years after the birth of Bitcoin, Saifedean Ammous analyzes the historical context of its emergence and its specific properties that make it a solid currency. Because while Bitcoin is an innovation of the digital age, the problem it seeks to solve is as old as the world: How to transfer value over time and space. The author paints a fascinating picture of money technologies from primitive systems to the present day with, in the background, this question that comes up as a constant: what are the characteristics of good money and its consequences for peace, trade, commerce, culture, culture, art, and capital accumulation. The result is Bitcoin, which, by its characteristics of apolitical digital cash, defies the best protected state monopoly.
