The Bitcoin Standard
Economics / Bitcoin
Ammous traces the history of money from seashells to the gold standard and argues that Bitcoin is the first monetary technology in history to combine absolute scarcity with digital transferability. Michael Saylor credited it with driving Microstrategy's $425 million Bitcoin purchase; also recommended by Nassim Taleb, Raoul Pal, and Anthony Scaramucci on Rooke's site.
