Hey guys,

I've gotten my feet wet with Bitcoin and Nostr as a bit of a hobby. I'm about 3 weeks in or so.

I haven't done any serious research in to bitcoin to up my understanding on the subject. I can use wallets and make purchases, but I like understanding

  • the business
  • the culture
  • the science

And with nostr, that is much easier. Its a protocol, and I've been having fun with it.

As a comparison, in my younger years I went full-in on PHP and MySQL and got really good at using it effectively as first developer skills. I'm trying to do it again.

I'd love:

  • Videos
  • "Standard" books?

Thanks guys. I've been watching this community for a while now and it's really mature and next-level.

Gradually then Suddenly by Parker Lewis I find is a good starting point for getting a good balance of technical and economic explanations of Bitcoin.

Check out @satwize and their bitcoin books collection.

Bookmarked it, and I'll be reading that. Thank you.

Videos and books tend to get stale quickly. Lurking on Stacker News, X, and Nostr is the best way to recognize trustworthy contributors and valuable projects.

Basically its skill stuff I'm looking for.

How to actually "work" with bitcoin systems. Not just use wallet apps.

Gradually Then Suddenly

All introductory common sense, but of course alignment with common sense is one of Bitcoin's strongest features.

Three weeks in and you’re already asking the right questions. Bitcoin rabbit hole officially unlocked.
