A cool one that gave me quite a laugh some time ago was: BASIC SOLIDITY FOR DEGENS: An Uncensored Programming Guide for Blockchain Badassery

It's free on KindleUnlimited and you can read it in a few hours, if you have a techy background. And even if you're new to programming language, it gives you quite a decent base.

OP has made a good list, eventho to be honest I only have read some of them. I would like to add new titles that in my opinion will be relevant in 2024. "*Bitcoin: Hard Money You Can't F*ck With*" by Jason A. Williams, and "Layered Money" by Nik Bhatia. They commented on the role of Bitcoin during economic crises, with changes in money systems, bringing fresh perspective insights to change the world using cryptocurrencies.

It's going to get old working just with the same classics, it feels like the crypto space is moving at a mile per minute. You may want to look into new works or updated versions that delve more into the status of things like decentralized finance, NFTs, and blockchain innovation, rather than purely older foundational ideas.

I would add Broken Money by Lyn Alden to the mix of books you should read if you are interested in money and financial systems.
I have read two of Saifedean's three most popular works: The Bitcoin Standard and the Fiat Standard. His Principles of Economics is also on my shelf and waiting to be read at one point in the future.

but OP should change the title because of the misconception that these are new releases, OP should just take take down the year to make the title relevant to the e-books he is promoting.
It's marketing trick for SEO purposes. You give the impression to the search engines that the site was updated according to the trends of 2024. But if you analyze the heading, it doesn't mean that the books being promoted were released in 2024. '2024' refers to the year in which you should read the promoted books. It's not their release date.

I thought these were new books in 2024 lol and it's the same old books of 5 to 10 years ago Wink

To be fair, OP doesn't say anything about new or recently released book. Although i can understand some people might assume that.

These e-books/books are still relevant today and OP recommends these e-books for people who just started to use Cryptocurrency, these are timeless and worth reading at any year because their contents are classic, but OP should change the title because of the misconception that these are new releases, OP should just take take down the year to make the title relevant to the e-books he is promoting.

To be fair, OP said about 2024 which is why one would assume it means newly released books. People who want to know relevant books and evergreen ones will search for "Crypto books to read". If I wanted to know new titles I would add "2024".

Or am I wrong?

Anyway, yeah, he still hasn't answered why he's promoting books for price I can find for free. Knowledge should be free, especially ebooks!

Mastering Bitcoin is a free book and I don't think anyone would think of selling it.
Andreas Antonopoulos sells the paperbacks through Amazon. He also sells the e-books. It's true that there is a free version on GitHub, but despite that, some people prefer to buy the actual book for various reasons.

Firstly, it's a way to support the author and show appreciation for their work. Secondly, people like myself don't like reading digital books. I have always preferred a physical copy I can hold in my hands than starring at a computer monitor, which I already do way more than I should. I also enjoy seeing my progress, as the amount of pages I have read increases, while those that remain to be read decrease. You don't get that from e-books. Those digital page numbers mean nothing to me. 


FWIW, O'Reilly (the publisher) also sell the book (both digital and physical version) where they also let you read it online for free.

Not that I have anything against them. I love Internet of Money but you should read the partner book Mastering Bitcoin, same style very interesting and very useful. Better than reading nonsense about trading.

So are you offering a free download service? Smiley I mean you're charging $8 when I know where to get it for $0 Tongue

Still, in this age where the internet is this open, do you think that it is fair for anyone to be selling cryptocurrency books? That is my own plight though but otherwise may have their won.

I believe that if it is about any information regarding Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, it is only a lazy searcher who won't find what he is looking for free, aside from the subscription money which is "nothing to write home about."

Unless we're talking about piracy as well, that's quite a big claim right there considering that cryptocurrencies are such broad topics specially if you dive into technical bits. Further, different people can have different point-of-view on certain topics and/or better explaination which makes the whole thing even broader.

Making a book is hard work, not to mention, published ones typically undergo couple of editings and quality checks. It's totally fair if people sell them books.

I must say that I love your sincerity, had it been that it was other people, they would have wanted to hide under the pretence but you showed your intention straight away, and you might have been smart through this. Still, in this age where the internet is this open, do you think that it is fair for anyone to be selling cryptocurrency books? That is my own plight though but otherwise may have their won.

OP just dropped his offer here and did not even bother to come back and answer all the questions by members, I believe these e-books are copyrighted but I don't see on his website that he has permission to sell these e-books,

He will bet that the site will not be famous until he can sell some books. I expect that the writer will not search every day for sites that violate intellectual property rights, especially since the owner of the site is unknown.

I see no reason for you to buy these books from Bookzapper when you can download them through Google or buy them legally.

The same with Andreas Antonopoulos' Mastering Bitcoin. I wonder why it isn't on the list. I have time and again read that it is probably the best guide in technically understanding Bitcoin.


Mastering Bitcoin is a free book and I don't think anyone would think of selling it. Everything is for sale and there is no section for free books.

I'm not sure if there's an ebook version of Jason Lowery's Softwar, but if there is I wonder why it isn't on the list. It has since been taken down or somehow banned, but there is still a high demand for it. I wanted to get one, and although it remains available until now, the price is so high. It seems to be a very interesting read.
Amazon doesn't offer it anymore. It isn't available, but it used to be. If you can't get it the normal way by purchasing it, I am sure you know there are alternative ways to get your hands on it. It took me a few seconds to find 2 working download links. I guess we are talking about the same book, the one with 360 (or so) pages.

The same with Andreas Antonopoulos' Mastering Bitcoin. I wonder why it isn't on the list. I have time and again read that it is probably the best guide in technically understanding Bitcoin.
The bolded part is probably also the answer to your question. I guess OPs idea wasn't to recommend technically complicated materials for reading. I don't think Mastering Bitcoin is something you would recommend to someone who knows nothing about crypto, and that's probably also true for Softwar.

You have a section about https://bookzapper.com/audiobook/ but all the links are to copies for reading, not for listening.
Your list is good, but you need more promotion as a special discount for the forum, in addition to the fact that it is allowed to promote your service for free using the ANN topic.

The site is currently down as I'm writing this post it shows 403 Forbidden Access to this resource on the server is denied!

As implied by it's name, it means you're not allowed the website. If the website is down, you'll see different error code or message such as "503 Service Unavailable" or your browser says it can't connect. Anyway, try using different internet connection or VPN to bypass 403.

--snip--
Good to see that you have a catalog of Crypto Ebooks in your website. and best thing is that you accept crypto payment. that's very important for us bitcointalk users.
but why only 6 books? you are missing so many important books there. are you planning to add them in future?

Looking at whois, it looks like the website created less than a year ago[1]. So it's not surprising they only offer popular ebook for now. Although i agree more ebook would be better.
