In short... The book about Bitcoin that doesn't talk much about Bitcoin 😄
Today I finished The Fiat Standard by #[0]. The Fiat Standard is the sequel to The Bitcoin Standard. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wish I would have read it or listened to the audiobook a year ago when I had first purchased it.
Being active in the Bitcoin space, a lot of the book's content was review, however it was still a fantastic read due to the framing of various concepts of the fiat system. The correlations to Bitcoin made the content fun and interesting. I would recommend this to anyone looking to expand their own research or in use to orange pill others.

These are all concepts that we just didn't learn in high school or even in my economics class in college. We didn't truly learn about money or how the system that we use truly works or about it's consequences. Because of this, I look forward to the next book in the series, Principles of Economics. 🤙🏻

it talks about bitcoin a lot, actually. the first few chapters do not, as it explains the fiat system, but the last chapters do a lot, explaining how bitcoin operates differently.
