Last year I started writing a Bitcoin book.
Bitcoin 201.
The goal:
help people who understand bitcoin's significance *use it*.
Not for the NgU crowd who see bitcoin as a trading instrument.
Rather, for the people who can see bitcoin through
Jeff Booth (npub1s05…eyhe) "Price of Tomorrow"'s lens.
In my experience, people often tend to understand its importance but are afraid of using the software, or don't see the point of doing so.
My thesis is that comfort with bitcoin's volatility greatly increases when you familiarize yourself with the tool, and that the only real way of understanding it is by interacting with the software regularly.
Writing is hard. Real hard though. Which surprised me. ("how hard can it be? I already know all this stuff, I'll write it in a couple of weeks!")
Recently,
doc (npub1xy5…3urc), seeing the project was abandoned, offered to work on it.
I made the very humble beginnings available on
https://github.com/pablof7z/bitcoin-book and I'm very excited to see where it goes next and help out bring this book's value prop to many people.
