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.
nice

It is incredibly frustrating. Comfort kills.

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

thanks, i think this was recommended on a thread about documentaries i made the other day
what would be the best way to coordinate a book club with stacker.news? i attend one over zoom sometimes.
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.
im a brit so used to getting shit for the colonial sins of the past, but man, i was like, how have i never heard about this that the French are still up to, all the while Macron is out there trying to be all holier than thou, such a fucking hypocrite piece of trash
Ditto
People get Bitcoin at the time and exchange-rate they deserve.
I've heard someone say that before.
