I was exploring new ways of thinking about economics, after graduating with an econ degree and landing a job.
I stumbled upon a book called "Austrian School for investors" (https://www.amazon.com.au/Austrian-School-Investors-Rahim-Taghizadegan/dp/3902639393)
The book is brilliant and walks you through the Austrian business cycle theory, explaining what money is, how it emerges and how credit expansion sows the seeds of its own destruction - amazing book
At the end of the book (or near enough) the authors mention bitcoin
I remember reading it on my train ride home, it was the first time I'd ever heard about bitcoin (cos I live under a rock) and I was like "well that's just obvious"
So that day I bought my first bitcoins, then got confused in 2017 blocksize-war stuff and lost them to shitcoining
