Bitcoin Explained: Author Jesse Berger Breaks Things Down EP112 Oct 30, 2020

Show notes

Jesse Berger is the author of “Magic Internet Money: A Book About Bitcoin”. This book covers Bitcoin from a variety of different angles, including a history of money, the inception of Bitcoin, mining, nodes, and competition from altcoins/central banks (if there even is any). I found it to be quite concise and easy to parse through, so I hope you enjoy this chat!
