Bitcoin Forum

To study more about the cryptocurrency and know exactly where bitcoin and other crptocurrencies came from,what they do and how they work,here are six(6)books every crypro user must read.
1)"Digital Gold" by Nathaniel propper
2)cryptoassets;the innovative investors guide to bitcoin and beyond by Chris Burniske and Jack Tatar
3)"Blockchain Revolution" by Don Tapscott and Alex Tapscott
4)"The age of cryptocurrency" by Paul vignar and Michael j.casey
5)"American kingpin" by Nick Bilton
6)"The internet of money" by Andreas Antonopoulos.

You can also watch movies with the following titles:"The rise and rise of Bitcoin" and "Bitcoin; The end of money as we know it" both released in 2014,when global public knowledge of cryptocurrency remained a fraction of current levels.

We all know that crypto currencies in our world is now increasing at a very fast rate and now they are considered to be the greatest, very huge and the most potentiating investment of the present times and I guess this is the most probable reason why millions of people around the world are now investing into these crypto currencies as they are the most profitable and the beneficial one and has provided employment to all those people who look it at with great interest.

Great ideas because about cryptocurrencies we know from online, Internet, Twitter and Facebook, social media.. But there have  no hardware actually I told about no written book about cryptocurrencies. So cryptocurrency note book may help in development in crypto.

Honestly I only use this forum to gain knowledge about cryptocurrency. There are lots of books to learn but it would be a lot more fun when it comes to reading discussions about a certain issue or topic. There are some people who really love to watch videos rather than reading books. I myself is not into books and I find it boring to read one so I'll just spend most of my time gaining knowledge using this forum and other crypto sites.

there are many ways to learn. but everyone must have their own learning principles so that they are easy to understand in their own way. like reading a book or even looking at videos. because cryptocurrency is very broad, we have to learn more broadly so that we can add experience.

Guess what I dont like reading but its good that you shared the info about these titles here. I am not going to read them anyway because I never thought about reading the books about the crypto currencies or I think that the information that we gain from the everyday does and dots within the crypto space is what important than reading a book. The books anyway gives us what others feel about it and bunch of the info written in their own speech and write ups. Its good that they sort it out and provide huge knowledge but hey come on its all new world and you can just have more practical experience by doing things on your own.

Different authors and differents stands and opinions but al can contribute some knowldege that we/I doesn't know yet, However,  there are also apps in play store that is also useful to newcomers in the crypto industry,  when i was a newbie i installed cryptowiki in playstore,  even thou it has  basic information but good to start.

Only noteworthy for me is Internet of Money by Andreas Antonopoulos.

I would say that it open my eyes. Its and 2 year old book (released in 2016) but I guess it's still applicable specially all about the downtrends in crypto market and of course all about blockchain.

Have wright it down already mate,and for sure i will read all of this and watch the movies since i am still on studying and learninh crypto world,because there is no really expert here  since everyday theres always new to learn about such

Thanks bide away mate,it really helps alot

I just heard about it now. It proved that cryptocurrency is globally developing and make it popular through writing about it and giving some movie for it so people can recognize it. Thank you for this information. I am just reading information on internet and haven't find any of books you mention, now I know that there are some existed and it is very long time when it published. This can be helpful to learn more things about digital currencies and new knowledge that can share to others.

Thanks for the references i would like to buy some later.
Right now i'm looking for blockchain programming books, is there anyone know one of the or the best one ? please let me know

This is a huge help for everyone who really wanted to understand what the cryptocurrency is. How the bitcoin works and how it started and such. This will surely contribute to the growth of the cryptocurrency economy. We all know that crypto is starting to be used by everyone slowly it will be used worldwide by all people.

the growing popularity of bitcoin, especially when bitcoin shot in 2017, many local book publishers published crypto books. I myself have bought a crypto book published by a programmer expert in my country for $ 6. much can be learned, but from what I read, the book is only focused on minning, both from hardware and software. quite useful. on the home page, also explained about crypto typing, its nature, and also the road map.

You can get the most useful updates and info about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies from this forum, even without reading a lot of books. I am not against reading, but nowadays you can get the newest information online, and discussing it with the community easily, and I think that's better than just reading a few books.

I've already read numbers 1  and 3. Those books will really help you to know more about crypto, like if  articles doesn't satisfy yourself about how crypto works then read those books. It make cost couple of dollars but don't worry that will help you a lot in the future and maybe pass it to others for them to learn stuff about crypto.

Thank you for the suggested books you mention. I admit that I am still new to this kind of world and what you have mentioned are going to be a great help for me to understand more the cryptocurrency. In fact, I just attended a seminar regarding to the blockchain and it is for the young ones. Reading and listening to that is a must because it will help everyone of us to be more confident in using it.

But actually we don't have to understand what is bitcoin and blockchain for using it because most of the people in the world knows money has value but very few knows how it works so if someone want to be a crypto currency developer or something much professional on crypto currency then he can read those but other than no need to read any.

Great, thanks for sharing.

Can also add some others (more practice and technical details):

7. The Business Blockchain: Promise, Practice, and Application of the Next Internet Technology by William Mougayar (2016)
8. Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies: A Comprehensive Introduction by Arvind Narayanan (2016)
9. Mastering Bitcoin: Programming the Open Blockchain by Andreas M. Antonopoulos (2017)
10. The Bitcoin Bible by Benjamin Guttmann (2013)

From all this books i can recommend personally this one.
Andreas is absolute mastermind behind Bitcoin technology. Each of his words are spoken from deep understanding of Bitcoin.

Typically, some of us are getting bored in reading hundred pages books and will just get limited knowledge and I'm more fond reading one pager yet full of insights however reading those sometime is a one sided view and didn't consider taking the other side. So yeah, reading here will get us some answers that's really out of the box and different perspective.

I think Andreas once said that the Crypto currency technology is moving so fast that by the time the book was published, most content within the book was outdated.  :P

The best resource for most information on Crypto currencies in my view, will come from research on the Internet. Yes, I agree that the writers of these books have done most of the research for you and they also have a lot of experience, but the process to get that information published, takes too long for most of that information to keep up with the changes in the scene.  :(

An updated website or Blog or forum is much better, if you are not too lazy to do your own research.  ;)

Are these books online as well?

Definitely they are, the internet happens to be a wonderful tool,and hardly anything you wish to research about is missing on it..
You can definitely surf the internet,and definitely you'll get excerpts of the books mentioned by the OP,and you can read and download them

This is a link about crypto films, it may be useful to you: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5072422.0

highly recommend "American kingpin" by Nick Bilton

Great list ! will go through it

You do not need books,neither do you need to watch films to learn more about cryptocurrency or the bitcoin,its just down to your willingness to read on this forum as well as read online articles..
Reading a book about cryptocurrency could bore you out,and may actually not provide up to date informations that you wish to acquire...
This forum provides you new and up to date information on any area you wish to research on, the internet does likewise also..
But if you feel better or more at ease seeing movies in order to learn through it, then it's not a big deal I guess...

These are all good books and same as the movies but i guess if we really wanted the whole world to understand and learn everything about crypto for them to enter and believe this community and currencies i guess the books may have other languages translations and the movies have subtitles because we know that not the whole world or people on it can understand english that easy so having something for them for easy understanding is best way to readh them and encouraged .but i have read the last book and will check later all the remaining five,thank mate for this

You can't deny books, they are the perfect pieces of mind.
So, thank you for this list, I will surely read all of them.
Now we have tons of information on the internet, some of the content is systematized (https://cryptodetail.com/where-blockchain-course-free), some not, but the fact of being able for getting all the required knowledge is amazing.

That's called truly worthwhile reading, it really helps a lot entire the community alongside who would like research over it. Although this forum quite relevant in this case works out over bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. These days if you have great enthusiasm about gathering idea, then it's not a big trouble.

"Digital gold: earn money on the web" (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LH18QBB) can be useful for beginners, i think.

Great suggestions, thank you!
I am just in the very beginning on my way into the world of cryptocurrency. So the list you provided is very useful :)

Are there any online platforms apart from actual books that you have checked when just learning about crypto?

The last one is the best (6.)

But no one suggest a bitcoin whitepaper
by Satoshi Nakamoto :D
A lot of things explained about blockchain, world economy,
technology...

https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

If you're after a free read about privacy coin Monero, you can get it as PDF for absolutely nothing (or a donation) :)

https://masteringmonero.com/

Just starting to read through and so far so good. Maybe I can update later on whether it is a 'must read', or just a 'pretty good to read'.

Knowledge for nothing folks.

Great list! If you need a break and want lighter reading material, I recommend reading these market and exchange reports http://coinscious.io/coinscious-lab/

Easy to read articles and keeps you up-to-date

Books are good to start orientation in these cryptocurrency issues, you wrote very good books and I will check them because I only read Mastering Bitcoin. In my opinon best is read book and then check in bitcoin wiki or bitcoin github are there any changes.

Here is one more blog, a small eBook:

(Money and Payment systems of tomorrow)
Bitcoin rise with crypto industry story

Disclaimer: I'm the author.

That's all listed book is good to share and gives a lot to the reader's but the problem is it depends on the people how they learn we have different way of learning such as reading books and watching videos and if you are kind of person love to read it is good I just read one of these and it is worth like the experience and guide can give to you but of course you need to invest time a lot.

Also reading forums, articles and watching videos and ask base on their experience is good
