- 224 pages
- 8 hours of reading
Formulated in an agile Question & Answer format, this book serves as a concise and systematic entry point for newcomers to the topic. For those already familiar with Bitcoin, it acts as a useful manual to clarify common misunderstandings and explore more advanced concepts, encouraging a shift in thinking towards "sats" and the LNP/BP technological stack. Concerns about the transition to electronic payments include potential decreases in personal privacy, as highlighted by Hal Finney in 1993. The rise of a cashless society presents critical issues that threaten individual freedom and economic roles, which Bitcoin addresses effectively. It offers a viable alternative to centralized monetary systems, functioning as digital cash. Bitcoin not only revolutionizes peer-to-peer value exchange without a trusted third party but also establishes a foundational layer for future monetary instruments. The LNP/BP suite concept parallels the TCP/IP model that underpins the Internet today. This book retraces the journey to electronic cash, addressing the challenges of a cashless society, the workings of Bitcoin, its creation, and future implications. Additionally, it includes an appendix with seven best practices for engaging with Bitcoin, an article on business modeling in the Bitcoin Lightning Network ecosystem, and clarifications on the "one CPU, one vote" misunderstanding.
