Books
The Little Bitcoin Book by the Bitcoin Collective – An excellent and short introduction to what Bitcoin is and why it’s so important.
Grokking Bitcoin by Kalle Rosenbaum – A very approachable technical explanation suitable even for those with no technical background.
The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous – The standard text for understanding monetary economics and how Bitcoin fits in.
Bitcoin Money by Michael Caras – A children’s book that introduces what money and Bitcoin are; it’s also great for adults.
The Ethics of Money Production by Jorg Guido Hulsmann – Written before Bitcoin was created, it provides the history and ethics of how and why money is produced. It’s a recommended follow-up to The Bitcoin Standard.
De Moneta by Nicholas Oresme – This is the first known treatise on the ethics of the production of money, written in the 14th century and provides valuable insight to how far we’ve strayed from what is socially acceptable for a money system.
