About this listen
Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers chart a crash course through the pitfalls of modern economic theory and the world's fiat money system with a hopeful destination in Bitcoin is Venice. What if a global, digital, sound, open-source, programmable currency was monetizing from absolute zero? How might our conception of capital change? What novel forms of capital formation and economic production will become possible? How might they affect the design of social institutions? Can Bitcoin bring about a new Renaissance? With Farrington and Meyers, the discussion is as revolutionary as the answers.
©2022 Allen Farrington, Sacha Meyers (P)2023 Allen Farrington, Sacha MeyersComplex. Scaring away low dimensional thinkers.
High level for open minded and those who can envision a better system outside the existing system. Something hard to do that requires certain personal characteristics such as being forward thinking, faithful and open minded.
Sophisticated and mind boggling

Lots of high level vocabulary, some words I've never even heard before, and they weren't technical words either!
It probably needs listening to two or three times to fully understand and absorb the book in its entirety and the message.
Maybe if you know more about history than I do you'll find it an even more interesting read, but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this quality audio with its rich content on the topic of Bitcoin.
