My Journey into the Bitcoin Rabbit Hole
This is a somewhat unusual book. But hey, Bitcoin is a somewhat unusual technology, so an unusual book about Bitcoin seems fitting. This book came about because of a simple question: "What have you learned from Bitcoin?" I believe that Bitcoin is the most important invention of our time and that more people need to understand the nature of this invention. Bitcoin is still one of the most misunderstood phenomena of our modern world, and it took years for me to fully recognize the significance of this extraordinary technology. Recognizing what Bitcoin is and how it will change our society is a profound experience. I hope to outline in this book the building blocks that might lead to that recognition.
In short, this is simply a book about Bitcoin, written by a Bitcoiner. Bitcoin does not need this book, and you probably do not need this book to understand Bitcoin. I believe that Bitcoin is understood when one is ready to understand it. And I also believe that the first fractions of a Bitcoin will find their way to you when you are ready to receive them. Essentially, for everyone, at just the right moment, the orange coin will drop. In the meantime, Bitcoin simply exists, and that is enough.
