Ten years after the birth of Bitcoin, Saifedean Ammous analyzes the historical context of its emergence and its specific properties that make it a solid currency. Because if Bitcoin is an innovation of the digital age, the problem it seeks to solve is as old as the world: How to transfer value in time and space? The author paints a fascinating picture of the technologies of money from primitive systems to the present day with, in the background, this question that comes back as a constant: what are the characteristics of a good currency and its consequences on peace, trade, culture, art and the accumulation of capital. He comes to Bitcoin which, by its characteristics of apolitical digital cash, challenges the best protected state monopoly. An essential book for anyone seeking to understand this new digital currency as well as for students of economics, teachers and financiers.
