What literature to include for master thesis about Bitcoin?

[Mcoroklo]

During the next six months, I am going to make a master thesis about Bitcoin.

Currently my working title is "Bitcoin as a disruptive technology". My main hypothesis is Bitcoin is changing the value chain in finance, which basically means huge disruptions can, and probably will, happen.

However, I would love to hear YOUR thoughts! I need a shitload of literature, and I am currently collecting that. So far I've basically taken all the top 10 papers on Google Scholar about Bitcoin (the official paper, two Bitcoins at the price of one, how to make Bitcoin a better currency) and some others.

I am not trying to cover Bitcoin from a technical angle (besides 5-10 pages which is necessary to understand its implications), but from a business+society angle.

- What literature would you include? Any ideas is MUCH welcome and appreciated

How many times can a person spell literature incorrectly in a post about a master thesis?

Thanks for your help. That really made a difference. (Oh yeah, and funny fact: most people on the forum is not born English speaker).

Protip: english is not the only language of the world.

I've got a few references on the technologies that preceded and enabled Bitcoin. Send me an email: goss@btcedproject.org

It is however the only language in science.

What's your masters' in?

E-Business (a combination of business, law and technology).


Anyone else: Thanks for the input Of course, any science is in English, so the report will be written in English as well. Luckily Indians with PhD's in English cost 5-10$ an hour, so they can fix all that spelling/grammar stuff! :-D

Sir,

That is funny.

[fancy_pants]

read The Fountainhead, Tragedy and Hope,  The Creature from Jekyll Island, Cryptonomicon.  Tragedy and Hope is likely the only one you can cite in a thesis, but the rest provide meaning to all of this.

I am not one as well, but basic spell check can get point across better, and remove distractions

Indians are good in everything 'cause there are so many of them.

Well Oiled is a novel that features bitcoin. I know because I wrote it. The plot would not be possible without bitcoin.

wow, really embarrassing to see what kind of smart-asses the other bitcoin-fellows are. From my side, I wish you all the best for your thesis.
