“It was much quicker and easier to understand than I expected [...] After reading it I sold some of my alts for more bitcoin. I’m on the edge of becoming a maximalist because of you.” - Nako Mbelle, Around The Coin Podcast

"Inventing Bitcoin was the result of my own journey into discovering and understanding why Bitcoin was invented and how it works. I left a long and successful career in tech entrepreneurship to study Bitcoin full time because I believed it was among one of the most important inventions of this century. After more than a year of giving talks on Bitcoin to various audiences including high school students, I found that there was no book out there that succintly captured the how and why of Bitcoin. This book is written at a level anyone can understand, and yet will leave you with a depth of knowledge that will make you confident enough to explain Bitcoin to your friends and family. Today, Bitcoin is leading a radical transformation in our society and enabling human collaboration, freedom, and flourishing on a scale never before seen. This book will enable you to see what so many people who have dedicated thousands of hours to studying Bitcoin are talking about -- and all in just a short two hour read." — Yan Pritzker
