News Of The WeekNews Of The Week
Welcome to the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts.
There was good content posted this week, but I’m disappointed by the engagement and sats. This was a crazy week for bitcoin, so perhaps stacker’s attention is focused elsewhere. Cut it out!
Among the good stuff, @elvismercury created a consolidated post linking to all of the content of his Lyn Alden Broken Money Book Club. I have now included it permanently in the index. @denlillaapan continues to keep us afloat, with three of the top five posts.
Reminder: For the time being I will zap the top posts half the rewards I receive about twenty four hours after the post, rather than split zaps into cowboy credits.
Happy reading!
.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

This one by @Taft did pretty well, but I wanted to mention it here for its content and the short but insightful discussion.
I had no idea that this book was published until @Roll made this post. I have not read it, so if any stackers are interested in writing a book review, let’s hear what you think.
This might be the most niche bitcoin related topic ever, but I was intrigued. As an old Dead Head, I am drawn to the whole Jam Band community, so I was one of probably only a handful of stackers who cared to read this post. @Fundamentals is new to SN, but he has his own podcast where he talks about Phish and bitcoin. If you are in the mood to climb down a deep rabbit hole, read the article and listen to an episode of his podcast.

Thanks for this! Got me to add @grayruby review to my bio!
Appreciate the plug. Would love to attract listeners, but I'm building the show like Phish itself. I'm hopeful it will reach the band and they will consider the ideas I present. Also want them to have access to high signal should they ever take Bitcoin seriously.
well deserved plug
not enough alumni from the Ivy League in the SN community
Appreciate it - but I'm no Ivy League. Probably would still be a nocoiner if I was.
maybe I should have said New England and NY vs Ivy League
It felt like a slow week in general at SN. I'll try my hand at a book review this week maybe, but it's probably going to look like a 5th graders book report.
Can't wait!
Wonderful!
I'm am here to serve, my lord.
