Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers chart a crash course through the errors of modern economic theory and the world's broken fiat currency system with a hopeful Bitcoin Is Venice.What if a global, digital, sound, open-source, programmable currency was monetizing from absolute zero? What might economies look like under a Bitcoin standard that pushes beyond Hernando de Soto's abstraction of "capital" as and "economic potential energy? and " What might this new form of capital do to our current governing bodies? Can Bitcoin bring about a new global Renaissance? With Farrington and Meyers, the discussion is as revolutionary as the answers. and "Entertaining and erudite, this is a manifesto for a more ethical monetary and financial system, for capitalism in its purest form and for 'number go up' technology. This book bridges the gap between the concept of an open-source sound money and the practical reality of an ethical and workable financial system. and " - Harris Irfan, author of Heaven's Bankers"A great deep dive into how Bitcoin provides a transmission mechanism to a world of truth, freedom, and abundance." - Jeff Booth, author of The Price of Tomorrow" Perhaps you found it surprising that a human rights advocate be asked to write the foreword to a book about finance and economics. But read the book, and you'll understand why I've been tasked with preparing you for this journey.This isn't simply about how money and finance work - though you'll learn a lot about that along the way - it's a book about how we can, and how we must, harness the power of Bitcoin to secure liberty in the electronic age.
