I point this out, because most bitcoin-adjacent books repeat the tired, unsubstantiated old Econ 100 chestnut that first there was barter, then money, then banks, then economies based on debt.
Now you know and will not be able to unseen it.
Broken Money, by nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a is only one of two books that I have ever read that acknowledge the anthropological fact that the first known organized economies were built on debt-based ledgers. Money came later. The other book is "Debt: The First 5000 Years".
