Inventing Bitcoin: The Technology Behind the First Truly Scarce and Decentralized Money Explained [Pritzker, Yan, Evans, Nicholas] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Inventing Bitcoin: The Technology Behind the First Truly Scarce and Decentralized Money Explained

Review: Excellent BTC Book - Extremely good book! Very concise and very clear. In less than 100 pages he tackles a ton of difficult topics. Very impressed although it’s probably not great for an intro to BTC, it is great for somebody who has read the classics and needs a more sound understanding of hashing and mining.
Review: Focuses on most important take-aways without getting too deep into the weeds - Pritzker packs a lot of helpful information into 106 pages. However, at every point, he is clear, concise, and makes no assumptions about the reader's background. Those who want to really understand the mechanics of the Bitcoin network, without getting lost in the weeds, will appreciate this book. What is cryptography and how does Bitcoin leverage this? Why is decentralization important? How does the software account for incentives at every point of Bitcoin's inflation schedule in order to secure the network? What about vulnerabilities? All this and more is covered in clear, direct language than the vast majority of people will understand. He explains the invention of bitcoin step by step, addressing what problem arose, how it was solved, etc. Very helpful, and a very quick read. I will be recommending it widely.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ a concise summary
*by D***E on January 18, 2025*

It's a pretty thin book. The physical book quality is OK, not the best quality frankly. Helpful info to read about. Nice and to the point.
