Glad you added it Brett, thanks!

I changed the group settings so that anyone can add books to the group shelf. If you know of a great bitcoin, cryptocurrency, or blockchain book please add it!

Haven't finished AoC yet, but it is a great read. More technical and market-impact oriented than say Digital Gold. If you want a technical treatment you should really pick up "Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies: A Comprehensive Introduction." It's a textbook, but it does not read like one at all.

The Ascent of Money is a great read.

I think the most interesting that I've read so far was "Digital Gold" by Nathaniel Popper. I also found "The Law of Bitcoin" to be very useful.

Hmm, these books are only available on Kindle. I was hoping to include books that were more widely available. Have you read them?

Thanks jon excellent suggestion!

If you have a book that you would like to see added to the bookshelf reply to this thread with the book title and author, and I will look into adding the book. Please include any explanation you think necessary for why the book should be included. Thanks.
