0/ The role that books play in sending people down the bitcoin rabbit hole cannot be understated. They also make decent gifts
. Here are some of my best IMHO-

A highly engrossing narrative (soon to be movie), following the journey of the @winklevoss twins, Bitcoin Billionaires is a highly accessible introduction to Bitcoin via @benmezrich
Prof. Hulsmann is a Senior Fellow @mises and notable speaker on Austrian Economics. @Stephanlivera interviewed him for a wide-ranging discussion earlier this year- https://bit.ly/2SkKGkh . @ydemombynes also wrote has a monster thread of the best quotes- https://bit.ly/2PUeYsN

The Sovereign Individual (1997) guides us through human history, leaving us with insight to navigate the present. As the printing press subverted medieval institutions, Davidson and Rees-Mogg posit that microprocessors will similarly subvert the modern nation-state.
Yes, thatâs right- a childrenâs book about Bitcoin by @thebitcoinrabbi . Kids intuitively understand the concept of digital money and often have less âunlearningâ to do. Full animated version of the audiobook: https://bit.ly/2SmT6HS
The Bitcoin Standard by Prof @saifedean is the book I've gifted the most. His 2018 lecture from a @bitcoin_at event is a great overview-
No introduction needed, @Snowdenâs book, through his own story, reveals a deep conceptual understanding of trust, data and incentive structures. Regardless of your thoughts on Bitcoin, this book will stir up similar fundamental questions.

Most of us best learn new concepts and technologies through analogies and storytelling. This compendium of transcribed talks by @aantonop covers things like- the history of money, open innovation, banking and scaling.

From sewerage systems to corrugated iron to the number zero, @mattwridley shows us the preconditions most conducive to innovation while dispelling common myths.
The Price of Tomorrow by Jeff Booth explains what happens when deflationary technology meets inflationary money. It acts as a guide for where we currently stand and where we're most likely heading.
