Jeder, der sich für die Geschichte von Bitcoin interessiert und hervorragend aufbereitet erfahren möchte, welche früheren Entwicklungen darin eingeflossen sind und woran vorherige Versuche in Sachen Digital Money und Electronic Cash jeweils gescheitert sind, MUSS dieses Buch verschlingen. Ich kann hier eine absolut uneingeschränkte Empfehlung aussprechen!

1/ Pull backs test belief. History restores it. @NickSzabo4's Bit Gold is the prequel that explains #Bitcoin’s design choices. Learn the history. Aaron Van Wirdum ( @AaronvanW ) Writes the story below:

1/ Red candles today. History says relax. Hal Finney’s 2004 RPOW kept the Cypherpunk dream alive, paving the way for Bitcoin. One bad day doesn’t change where we are going. Aaron Van Wirdum ( @Aaronvanw ) writes the story below: Art by @yonatvaks

1/ Physical work leaves marks you can see. Digital work left nothing until @adam3us created Proof of Work. These words by @AaronvanW shows how Adam Back’s idea keeps Bitcoin honest, one block at a time. Dated 28th March 1997 / Fact number 5/128 Art by @ROBNESSOFFICIAL

1/ The magic behind Bitcoin is signatures. You sign with a private key. The network checks with a public key. @chaumdotcom's blind signatures kept the proof while hiding the message. That changed everything. Art by @thisjackkaido Article guest written by @AaronvanW

1/ "Cypherpunks write code." That was the promise made in the 1993 Manifesto. They knew asking for privacy was useless; they had to build it. It took 15 years of failures, but eventually, that promise birthed Bitcoin. Art by @nicedayJules Article guest written by @AaronvanW
