Do you really want to create a cryptocurrency,or you are just asking for information about cryptos?
Do you think that creating a cryptocurrency is easy?
Now,about your request.I assume that you have a working PC and internet,which means you can search in google and youtube.
I think that people who make threads saying "give me all the info (books,articles,etc...)about this subject" are just lazy and don`t want to search google and youtube.
Anyway, i wish you good luck with your bachelor project OP.

Well, of course, I want to create a cryptocurrency, as that's one of the main goal of this project.

No, I don't think that this is super easy, and that's why I've started working on the project ahead of time.

Now, I did search the web in regards to all this (and picked several books for me to read), but figured out that it'd be a good idea to also reach out to the people on this forum, as they could help me out with some "additional" information/advice, based on their experience. Wink

Hello there, the BitcoinTalk crowd!

First of all, let me introduce myself.
My name is Iaroslav, and I am from Moldova. Yet, I study at the Computer Science faculty in Romania.

Recently I've chosen "creating a cryptocurrency" as the subject for my Bachelor project (which I've got to present in a year's time).
Roll Eyes

Now, in order to do this properly (and by "properly" I don't mean just working on a "satisfying" project, but, rather, becoming really knowledgeable about the domain, and, ultimately, contributing to its further development/improvement), I've decided to scrutinize the cryptocurrencies inside and out. Cool

I'd be really grateful to you if you provided me with the list of the most relevant/interesting/technical (in your opinion) books, articles and whatnot about Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, in general, and any other related subject.

Really looking forward to your help,
Iaroslav.
