Publisher's summary

The Bullish Case for Bitcoin, first published as a long-form article, represents an intellectual tour de force delivered with elegance and prescience by a polymath well-versed in mathematics, computer science, economics, philosophy, politics, and engineering. After March of 2020, it was evident to me that the world needed new money based on technology. However, in February 2018, when Boyapati first published his paper, this insight required much greater perspicacity, courage, and conviction.

In a clear and concise manner, Boyapati presents the theory of money, the anatomy of Bitcoin, the reasons it is superior to the gold and fiat standards that came before it, and the promise that it offers to human civilization. He describes path dependence and the trajectory of a newly monetizing asset in terms the layman can understand, and he addresses the concerns that most commonly arise as newcomers struggle to comprehend the essence and significance of this first digital monetary network.

I was immediately captivated by "The Bullish Case for Bitcoin" when I first read it, and made it part of the recommended reading for all the officers and directors of my firm as we educated ourselves on Bitcoin and considered the logical path forward. In this book, Boyapati updates and significantly expands on the ideas presented in his original article.

Short and concise explanation of BTC

I would recommend this book to anyone trying to understand what BTC is and how it can change the world to make place for a decentralized currency system where the banks and governments don’t control the supply and keep printing money without our consent. Thank you Vijay

Good book but the beggining of the audiobook…

Michael Saylor’s prologue quality is not good and has many cuts, I expected a little bit better quality for the audiobook of this great piece.

Bullish Case is a great introduction to Bitcoin

Bitcoin information given in explainable terms to make it more accessible to the layperson. To me Bitcoin (and cryptocurrency in general) was a tough to grasp asset class. Vijay described what Bitcoin is, why it has value, and at least for me helped justify why you should own some.

Qne of the best short intros to Bitcoin

Some historic details a little outdated (ex: Chinese hash power dominance) but overall a very clean, well explained and reasoned summary of the ongoing separation of money and state: Bitcoin.

Highly recommended.
