"Satoshi Revolution" Free Book on bitcoin.com

[wendymcelroy]

My new book has launched in serialized form at bitcoin: The Satoshi Revolution, A Revolution of Rising Expectations. https://news.bitcoin.com/introduction-t ... tcoin-com/ The Introduction gives a political, not a technical, overview of the revolution that is Bitcoin and explains why it fills me with fresh hope for freedom. I know many people are baffled by the enthusiasm it generates; the Introduction will explain 'why.' I hope you come and join in. I will monitor the commentary section all weekend...and every weekend thereafter as new material is added. Come to comment, to sign up for updates as material is added. You will be most welcome. -- Wendy McElroy

For those who don't know, Wendy McElroy is one of my own personal heroes.
I read a bunch of her writings as a teenager and they had a profound impact on how I see the world today.
It was thanks in part to her writings that I was so eager to get involved with Bitcoin.
I'm super super excited to have her writing a book on Bitcoin for Bitcoin.com

Thank you Wendy!

I just read chapter 1 part 1 and it was amazing!

“The theory of the value of money as such can trace back the objective exchange value of money only to that point where it ceases to be the value of money and becomes merely the value of a commodity.” So true! The point where bitcoin becomes money is when we stop thinking how many dollars bitcoin is worth and start thinking how many bitcoins everyday items we use are worth.

And the part about bad money driving out good money hit really close to home. I don't want to spend crypto because it has more solid Economics backing it, it's easy to use and transaction the fees are so much cheaper (good money) so I end up hoarding it. Instead I spend fiat because its always end up worth less the day after.

There were so many good things about this chapter, too many to talk about. I can see why Roger was inspired by your writing when he was younger. Glad to have you in this community and look forward to reading more. I'm gonna be recommending this book to my friends. =)
