just got finished reading this one and i have to say it was an excellent read.
the whole chapter about the french CFA i found particularly outrageous

it annoys me when non coiners with a first world perspective say bitcoin is useless because they are so ignorant and cant even understand how important it is to have a pure, censorship-resistant money like bitcoin

I should add this to my reading list.

Ugh, too much to read and too little time!

it's a good one, not a hard read either, unlike something on Austrian economics for example

fiat food was an excellent read also

Yes. Good, easy read. I saw Alex at a PubKey book presentation last year and got a signed copy.

It is incredibly frustrating. Comfort kills.

Great book. The CFA stuff stuck with me the most. That's one of the reasons why I think Africa is primed for bitcoin adoption. The injustice is enormous.

really good storyline to supplement the read about loans to poor countires. empty promises are worse and more ancient than they appear:

People get Bitcoin at the time and exchange-rate they deserve.
I've heard someone say that before.
