Great insight
I loved the way the book started from very fundamental concepts and then unfolded the blockchain technology. A great balance of technical and non-technical explanations.

Good book for beginners
This is a good book for beginners. Starts with the history of financial Systems and gradually gets into crypto to make you understand the various pros and cons of the different coins, exchanges and wallets and at the same time asks you to do better research yourself before jumping into this. Excellent work. Listen to book at 1.25 speed else it will be 💤.

Great book for history of currencies and how bitcoin works
It’s a great book for history of currencies and knowing how bitcoin works. It is mind blowing! The book loses momentum once the bitcoin story is finished but I guess it serves the purpose for readers/listeners. I thoroughly enjoyed.
