News Of The Week
Welcome to this week’s issue of the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts.
Two of the top five posts this week are about recently published bitcoin books. If anyone is reading “The Resistance Money”, please post a review here. Along those lines, @speakingyourtruth asked this week in a post whether there would be interest in book reviews. The answer is certainly yes, and that applies to all genres.
As always, please reply to this post with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.
I hope everyone has a good week.

Siggy’s Suggestions
I often find gems in @Rsync25 links. Here’s an example. I have never heard of this book, but it’s on my “must read” list now. Here’s the shortest Amazon quote I could find:
“Huang has given us an important book that weaves together two important subjects: Bitcoin and China. Both are shaping the course of the 21st century, and Roger uses his intelligence, knowledge, and talent for storytelling to show us why these two forces are on a collision course and why it matters to the future of money and geopolitics.”
— Jason Steinhauer, Author, History, Disrupted, adjunct professor at the Maxwell School for Citizenship & Public Affairs at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) in Washington, D.C.
Alex Gladstein wrote the forward. That’s good enough for me.
“The Bushido of Bitcoin” isn’t released yet, but Svetski is releasing portions of it and making the rounds of podcasts. This WIM episode is classic Breedlove. They both get deep into the weeds of bitcoin from a philosophical, spiritual, and religious perspective. I definitely want to check out this book when it is released in the fall.
This week’s Golden Oldie:
I know this post isn’t that old, but this video is gold. If you haven’t seen it, here’s your opportunity. If you have, it’s worth watching again. For those who haven’t read “Broken Money” yet, this will inspire you.
