It turns out the best book on Bitcoin was written by someone who thinks the cryptocurrency is not a particularly good form of payment, not particularly anonymous, and not a good investment for most people.

Saifedean Ammous, professor of economics at Lebanese American University, wrote 'The Bitcoin Standard' to cut through the hype and examine crypto technology through a rigorous Austrian lens. The result is a phenomenal book: pro-gold, pro-Mises, and optimistic about the crypto revolution's goal of creating truly private money. This is the guy you should listen to when it comes to Bitcoin.

He sits down with Jeff Deist for a thorough and entertaining interview. Welcome to the audio podcasting home of Saifedean Ammous and The Bitcoin Standard.
