Strap in for a raucous ride through the ever-evolving history of Bitcoin.

Replete with details guaranteed to shock and inspire, Crypto historian Ben Brauser and Cheyne Mackie's account of the genesis and history of cryptocurrency is a captivating journey through the basics of the paradigm-shattering currency, with key detours into fascinating crypto trivia that may transform the way you think about the concept of money.

Consider the common pizza. While some would guess that the first-ever object purchased with a Bitcoin had to be more spectacular, it was indeed two supreme pies. Large. As crypto-experts Brauser and Mackie illustrate, the ongoing story of cryptocurrency is charming, quirky, and unexpectedly action-packed. It's a trip through a quantum universe of strangeness. You'll encounter:
  • A pseudonymous coder acting on a utopian vision. Nakamoto has never been identified, but Brauser and Mackie provide fascinating clues to his identity.
  • Unimaginable sums of money spent on utterly ephemeral art objects-and the art market will never be the same!
  • Illicit transactions over the dark web.
  • Highly consequential coding overseen by the quirkiest-imaginable individuals.
  • A civil war fought over the very infrastructure of Bitcoin.
With the pace of a breaking-news cycle, Ben Brauser and Cheyne Mackie take us on a wild ride through the rapid highs and lows of cryptocurrency's past, where each moment in the saga is not only compelling, but transformative, and absolutely essential for understanding the coming crypto-currency, decentralized economy barreling down upon us.
