Summary
Bitcoin is hard money you can’t f--k with.
No one controls it. No governments, no companies, no central banks, no money printing. It’s a revolution as big as the internet. And it’s never been hacked.
Entrepreneur and investor Jason A. Williams is the first author to put bitcoin in context of the 2020 crisis - a year of financial disaster and unprecedented money creation (money printer go brrr!).
Not only was bitcoin the best-performing asset on the planet in 2020, it quietly established itself as the next global reserve currency as central banks around the world desperately printed their money into oblivion.
Hard Money You Can’t F*ck With explains bitcoin in simple, understandable terms and maps out how this "magic internet money" will grow into the best form of money we’ve ever had.

Easy language a f*ckwit like me can understand.
I'm really impressed by the way such a complex subject is conveyed in such simple terms that a total f*ckiwit such as myself can understand it. I do have a background in computing, but I've never taken any interest in cryptocurrencies. I remember sitting at my desk in London around 2012 wondering whether or not to buy a bitcoin for the fun of it, but of course, I steered clear of it.
Roll forward a few years and I'm living in Japan, I'm worried about the value of my money in the bank ... and then last weekend I saw the price of bitcoin take a dive. Thought to myself, okay, maybe now is the time to start investing. So I signed up for an online course in cryptocurrencies and thought I'd buy this book to supplement what I already knew, perhaps learn something I didn't. Well, lets just say I learned more from this book than any amount of researching I'd already done. I'd read Yuval Noah Harari's books before, so understanding the concept of money as a legal fiction might have given me a bit of a head-start in some areas of this book; but my god it's clarified a whole load of stuff I hadn't got figured out before.
I may not have grown into a cast iron HODLer yet, but I've definitely started a recurring payment plan into bitcoin ... and I'm looking into investing some of my cash into gold and silver. My fears of inflation seem to have been right, so I'm hedging against the fiat currencies. As most people in finance say, "don't invest what you can't afford to lose" ... I think that's a sound strategy, but then again, what will I lose if I don't might be a better question.

Decent read but bitcoin only
Good story, but very bitcoin centric, is it really reasonable to think that there will only be one crypto currency in the future? Still, it's well worth a listen. Not a huge fan of the narration as she sounds like Layah Heilpern and she annoys me.

Very interesting
I was someone who didn’t know anything about bitcoin before. This book contains lots of info about why we should invest and the history. The first hour or so is very repetitive but gets better after. I also wish it contained more technical information and how and where to buy it. But there isn’t anything about this. Although the narration is really good the quality of sound isn’t as good as all my other book. Sounds like they didn’t record it in a sound proof room. And places where audio is edited together, I can hear white noise. But all in all still 5 stars

Great intro to bitcoin
I am already an avid bitcoiner. This was a fantastic listen. A lovely female narrator was just what the doctor ordered
The story is great, the concepts well laid out and easy to understand. I don’t think you need to be a hardcore bitcoin enthusiast to understand this book.
I would recommend to anyone who is interested in learning about bitcoin or someone who is on the fence. Or just an enthusiast like me
