We all know learning is a continuous process and we acquire knowledge throughout our life and we should always learn from as many as sources possible. There are lot of study material around us but only few of us tend to have a look but we if we do have a look we could open our minds to next level. Books and writings are one best way to have knowledge about something rather than always looking for answers on net. So I would like to share with you some of the books we must read before or after entering the crypto market which could help us to grow here. So here goes my list for the same:
BITCOIN RELATED BOOKS
These all books are associated with bitcoin related topics and cover all the basic as well as technical aspects of bitcoin network and you should try to read them if not all but you should read one or two like "MASTERING BITCOIN" and "BITCOIN STANDARD" and I hope you will happy.
BLOCKCHAIN RELATED BOOKS
So these are some books which will take you to the ride of new technology era termed as "Blockchain" and how it can and is changing the world. For programmers these books can be of great help who want to learn solidity and build blockchain applications.
CRYPTO TRADING RELATED BOOKS
Day trading and short term trading is main concern for many investors and they want to make profits out of the market pumps and dumps but first they need to have knowledge how trading works. Although it will not provide you any exact strategy to profits but can guide you wit roadmap how to move and survive in this highly risky crypto market for traders and they must check these books
ALTCOINS RELATED BOOKS
With bitcoin many more coins came into the market and they are termed as altcoins as we all know and you must be aware about them also if you wish to do so and here is the list for some of altcoin study books on which you can have a look for your knowledge enhancement.
BITCOIN BOOKS FOR YOUR KIDS
We all know technology is growing at faster pace and coming generations are way smarter than us and love tech related things. So it's better to teach them about bitcoin and this crypto market at an early stage not as a burden on them but to make them aware of the upcoming scenario in which pre-acquired knowledge will help them a lot.
NOTE: My intention is just to make all aware about all these books and it's not a compulsion for everyone to read as I have also not read them all but slowly I am trying to cover them all just for my knowledge enhancement and so that I could post more effectively on the forum because i will be having sufficient knowledge to answer any question and same goes with you. You can choose any of it to read and try to finish it and you might not understand some technical terms but try to find the answers within the book at completion you will have something on your mind and will not loose anything so why don't make it it a habbit? You will find output in your posts also.

Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopoulos is probably one of the best out of the bunch. Anything by Andreas is usually pretty good. I've not heard nor read most of these though, and I'm dubious by some of the titles such as. Especially, the kids books this was being discussed in another thread, but I don't think its overly important to be teaching your kids about Bitcoin, especially at a very young age like the "B is for Bitcoin" book aims to do. Since, kids generally learn quicker when they can talk about every day things, see those things, and then can relate. Bitcoin is something that you can potentially suggestion once they reach their teens, but earlier than that I feel wouldn't be suitable.

Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopoulos is probably one of the best out of the bunch.
I just got this book today. If you have a good understanding of c++ then you can go to bitcoin core's repository on github and go through the code. Start from net_processing.cpp as that is where each message comes in and is processed including new blocks, new transactions, etc. That requires a better understanding of how bitcoin works though which would be better if you start by learning more. The book called Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas Antonopoulos is a very good start https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbookAfter listening to pooya87’s advice, I bought this book-Mastering Bitcoin. Today, my express has just arrived today, I should write this book into my schedule.I'm not sure if this book is genuine. May not be able to buy genuine in my country ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.loli.net%2F2021%2F07%2F22%2FfIAYpNQ7SxmdL9k.jpg&t=665&c=48ib6kvOIeMBHQ)

Anyone can also download the Master Ethereum by Andreas Antonopolous in his github. [1] https://github.com/ethereumbook/ethereumbookPlus this book by Eric Voskuil. It talks about concept and technicalities at the very deep level of understanding. Though I still not fully understand what was written, I think it would still be interestimg to read if one can understand bitcoin both in technical and economic concept.

I have to admit I haven’t read any of these books (so far), but while I have no problem reading them in English, it would be nice to have translated editions. Has anyone perhaps bought any of these books translated into another language?
I've only found The Bitcoin Standard translated into my own language, so I'm wondering if this book is suitable as a gift for someone who is a beginner, or is it still about some more advanced things?

Reading one of those books once in a while is a decent way to obtain some linear information, and the variety let’s one hover from the more technical prone books to those more related to usage, trading or historical background.
Out of those listed in the OP, I’ve only gone through Mastering Bitcoin and Bitcoin Billionaires. I’ve also has a crack at Hard Money you can’t F*ck with (Jason A. Williams) and of course The Internet of Money (Andreas Antonopoulos), all of which I found enjoyable, and one in particular seemed to bring the hype into exceeding hyper mode after reading it (Hard Money …).

Its surprising no matter how long you've been involved with anything, how was you forget if you aren't using it on a regular basis. This is especially the case for languages, ,and syntax for programming as well as Bitcoin. Bitcoin is very complicated, and it would impossible to remember all the details of it if you weren't using them every day, which lets me honest none of us do, unless your actively developing.

Anything written by Andreas Antonopoulos about Bitcoin is a good reading material, and even his videos are interesting to watch. One more interesting book about Bitcoin would be The Book Of Satoshi: The Collected Writings of Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto, written by Phil Champagne. It is a compilation of everything posted online by Satoshi Nakamoto, including posts from Bitcointalk forum, in chronological order with added comments from the author. Included are: - Satoshi Nakamoto Emails and Posts on Computer Forums Presented in Chronological Order - Bitcoin Fundamentals Presented in Layman’s Terms - Bitcoin’s Potential and Profound Economic Implications - The Seminal Paper Which Started It All ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fi8ePbcd.jpg&t=665&c=nPMpcqaYL7AG5g)

I love two books for kids. The world need to have more kids to know about Bitcoin. Next 30 or 40 years, they will be dominant bitcoiners, not us. We will belong to the elderly population next 3 to 4 decades. Kids now will be the future of the world and they will be the ones to accept or reject Bitcoin. If they are taught about Bitcoin in young ages, they will hardly to be poisoned by governments. I believe in them and have good impression with two books for kids.

Mostly the government will not be against Bitcoin at that time and no such blames would be given to btc and coming generations will use BTC as mainstream mode of payment in their daily life and we might be able to witness that time.Buy yes they must be aware about the upcoming scenario as technology is growing at such a fast pace and they need to have this knowledge but remember not to burden them with any kind of forced study of these books.But yes you can tell them exciting stories and in unique way teach them the importance of Bitcoin at present and upcoming time.The best way is to invest for them and gift them a wallet holding btc when they are grown up and then they know how to use it.

There are a lot of good books just like the OP mentioned but I'm not that that good at reading an actual book.
I'm more on an E-book and watching videos so that I can visualize how crypto market works and how a cryptocurrency can change our lives.
You have your own preferences on how can you make yourself improve and become knowledgeable in crypto world, so it is your choice.

I have read Mastering Bitcoin and some parts of the Bitcoin Standard, both are good for anyone who wants to learn Bitcoin but first they should read some classic books on economics so they can imagine the idea of Bitcoin price volatility and decentralization. I haven't read the rest of the books but I have a little free time in the coming days so I will order some of these books. Thank you for this topic.

Anything by Andreas is generally quite good, and that's not exclusive to his books, but his talks, and videos that hes done. He's probably contributed to Bitcoin adoption more than hes given credit for. I'm also sure he's encouraged, and influenced several new developers about using the Blockchain. I'm more on an E-book and watching videos so that I can visualize how crypto market works and how a cryptocurrency can change our lives.
If you can get any of these books as a audio book I'd recommend. I don't tend to read too many books these days because of time, and audio books have been a life saver in some aspects.

Sometimes it is easier to read a physical copy of a book rather than a digital copy. Additionally by purchasing the physical copy you are supporting the author for their efforts of gathering all this information in one place and explaining it in simple terms.

They want to prevent people to get abundant exposure to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency too easily. It can be for their beneficiaries, with their CBDCs. Additionally, it is their preparation for more regulations to protect people from scam projects. I don't like the first reason but I would agree to the second one. We want to have our own bank with Bitcoin but in society, newbies are vulnerable to scam projects. To protect them, primary solutions as regulations from governments are good. But yes you can tell them exciting stories and in unique way teach them the importance of Bitcoin at present and upcoming time.The best way is to invest for them and gift them a wallet holding btc when they are grown up and then they know how to use it.
Governments never reveal the truth to kids but books can, if they are not censored or distorted by governments.

I also have the physical copy of Mastering Bitcoin with me but in my case I downloaded the PDF file and print it out from my printer and yes it's easy to read from physical copies that's why I have also done the same when I was reading it. I don't like the first reason but I would agree to the second one. We want to have our own bank with Bitcoin but in society, newbies are vulnerable to scam projects. To protect them, primary solutions as regulations from governments are good.
Many small nations are likely to pass the crypto regulation bill in their parliament and some have already adopted it like El Salvador and what I was talking about was some years later when majority of government would come up with these regulations instead of putting a ban on Bitcoin.They will continue with all their centralized system of CDBC but yes BTC would be mainstream everywhere in the positive scenario.

You're making Sense towards this, i think from my perspective this book can expand our knowledge concerning cryptocurrency, most especially newbies are suppose to an article of cryptocurrencies in order to comprehend more better about cryptocurrency, because those countries that refuse to endorse crypto exchanges,and also those people living around the vicinity that Lacks the knowledge of cryptocurrencies with this recommendation of articles without further or explanation of cryptocurrency they will understand more better concerning it.
