Want to learn everything you need to know about bitcoin, and have fun doing it? Then read Brian Patrick Eha’s definitive history of the cryptocurrency, told through the stories of the individuals and companies who helped to build it, thereby fusing philosophy with technology and individual destinies with the financial revolution of our time.
