I lent out my copy of "The Bitcoin Standard" to a Boomer friend of mine. He was a tax professional and understands the traditional market.

He has gotten out of his positions and doesn't want to take on undue risk, for obvious reasons.

For months now I've been whispering in his ear about Bitcoin. Little bits here and there, how the cycles work all that. Everytime he just shrugs it off and says whatever.

Well he likes to read, and I've convinced him to read the book, open mindedly. He's agreed, I'm excited to see what his take will be after he reads it.

What do you think, was "The Bitcoin Standard" a good first choice? 🤔 just curious to hear your thoughts.

I like to start people off with Layered Money, but the Bitcoin Standard is good too

layered money...I haven't heard about that one. Was it an easy read? I'm pretty dense i.e. dumb so it's hard for me to read heavy books. I hardly made it through broken money by Lyn Alden. It's a me thing to be honest

It’s one of those “bitcoin books” that mostly isn’t about bitcoin. It is a lot of monetary history and the current structure of money/finance under the fiat stabdard™️

Highly recommended

Alright, I will be buying Layered money next

thank you for the suggestion.

Not boomer … ideologues matter more

For me … he’s a math 🧮 professor of just professional …

Age? Children matter too.
