Broken Money was published a year ago this week Thanks to everyone who read it, shared it, and reviewed it! 🙏 I resisted writing a book for years since it’s such a tedious process, until finally a book formed in my head that I felt needed to exist, and that was too distracting for me *not* to write. And then I poured everything I had into it. image

I put off reading it because I thought it might be too analytical and possibly a bit dry, like so many other other books on money. Found it on Audible a few weeks back, decided to give it a listen and practically devoured it. It’s a great book and superbly narrated by @Guy Swann Well worth a read or listen. 🎧 🤓
Well thank YOU for writing it. There's been so many twists & turns in the Bitcoin Rabbit Hole that I never expected, but reading great books has been a huge highlight In fact, I would argue that everyone here in Nostr is likely self-learners None of us would be here if not for the hard work of the people that we've been able to learn from en route It's a top 5 recommendation to anyone wanting to learn about #Bitcoin in my view I particularly enjoyed 1) your point about debt existing pre money 2) how you highlighted the inevitable failure of gold due to the advances of communication technology 3) the mechanics of broad vs narrow money
I lent my marked up soft cover to my dad. He loved it but lost it 🤦🏼‍♂️. This is the most digestible book I have ever read on the evolution of money and a great book to lend out to open eyes to the fiat scam. Thanks for the post it reminded me to buy a replacement copy but this time it will be the hardcover from Saif!
Thank You Lyn for the book. I learned some barter exhange in the past from Junior school but nothing further. Your book Broken Money has very deep explaination about Money and What is Money. I recommended it to all my friends whether they care about money or not. #NOSTR #decentralized #realmoney
This book is a masterpiece and a must-read. It deserves to be translated into every language and read worldwide. If you have friends or family members who don't understand the need for Bitcoin, I guarantee this book will enlighten them. #bitcoin
