Bitcoin Is For Everyone is out now in print, audiobook, and ebook…I can’t believe I finally get to say that! It’s trending in several categories on Amazon this week ☺️ Order now: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1804091138?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzameri07b-20&creativeASIN=1804091138&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.3Q6CKLCXBKGSV&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ons_mixed_d_asin This passion project has been years in the making. It comes from my family’s immigrant story, from watching the American Dream get priced out for so many hard-working people, and from my conviction that understanding money and Bitcoin can truly change ordinary lives. Before it goes out into the world in a bigger way, I want to acknowledge three early readers of my manuscript whose minds and hearts shaped this book in a huge way: nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpzpmhxue69uhh2uewwf38ytnzd9hsz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmc38c44v's thoughtful, disciplined, data-driven mind was absolutely indispensable. Lyn’s ability to turn complex ideas into clear writing grounded in rock-solid facts was a huge inspiration. Knowing she took the time to read and challenge this book is an honor I don’t take lightly. nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcps7ypf has such a uniquely calm, compassionate way of explaining the massive paradigm shift we’re living through. Jeff helped me articulate the transition we’re in (from a debt-driven, deflation-fighting system to something more hopeful) in a way that feels grounded and human. And the incredible Michael nostr:nprofile1qqs2xs05tluhtr6hpgsmqqxp04898gayjlyrjlexcrndv8j6el784xqprfmhxue69uhkummnw3ezummjv9hxwetsd9kxctnyv4mqz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9e3h2unjv4h8gtnx095su8jwx4…The way he combines first-principles logic, long-term vision, and personal integrity has deeply influenced my journey in Bitcoin. His example gave me so much courage to write boldly and from the heart. To Lyn, Jeff, and Michael: thank you for reading early copies of Bitcoin Is For Everyone, for your feedback, and for the example you each set in this space. You helped make this book better! I’m so excited (and very nervous!) to finally share it with all of you. You can order Bitcoin Is For Everyone now. I truly hope it helps people feel more empowered in this financial system. image

Congratulations! 🥂 Looking forward to reading it! Your interviews are among the best in the business. You have great communication skills. That is why I expect your new book to be top-notch. Hopefully the new Michael Saylor who dreams about Katy Perry token, ignores the Bitcoin White Paper, and is really excited about ‘crypto economy’, was not too big of an influence. While the old Mike was guilty of belittling self-custody etc., at least he had some great sayings like "there is no second best".

Massive congratulations on releasing this fantastic book @nat brunell that brings so much clarity to understanding Bitcoin. I can’t wait to dive into it. I’m currently reading Broken Money by nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytndv9kxjm3wdahxcqg5waehxw309ahx7um5wfekzarkvyhxuet5qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncdhu7e3 , which followed The Price of Tomorrow by @jeffbooth and The Bitcoin Standard nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skueqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgzr08nkh7nk4q9cmw02wkfprkgtk0n8kgszlzyqe384ll3qv5rp453f6g5h , and I’m really enjoying these deep explorations into our fiat-currency experiment. I’m taking in all of this knowledge to create content about broken money and Bitcoin specifically for teenagers—though my hope is that parents will tune in as well. So many people I know tend to glaze over when the topic of Bitcoin comes up, and this feels like a new, accessible way to reach them. I’m also hoping to introduce these concepts in schools, starting with both of my children’s schools. Your work is a huge inspiration in that effort. Thank you for everything you're doing to make this subject approachable for everyone.

That's measuring from an ATH to a dip. It doesn't mean it won't go up again. Dollars won't. It's still scarce, still movable, still able to be held in self-custody. Store of value isn't just about exchange rate or purchasing power on a given day. It's also about funds you can hold and move without permission, without widespread or targeted confiscation at the flip of a switch. I'm sure you know all that. But my message to newbies isn't much about NGU. That's just a bonus. It's about sound money, even if that's a harder concept to get across. It's not a stock. It's money. I tell them I'd be happy to see it plummet, so we can buy more. But, you make a good point. If all we're sharing is that it always goes up, they'll be unprepared when it doesn't.

Well over a third into the audiobook. Love it. Such a nice introduction into the topic. Especially your family’s history in Poland is so relatable since mine grew up in eastern Germany.
