Book by [[Saifedean Ammous]]. From [[The Bitcoin Standard (highlights)]]: > The Bitcoin Standard should be required reading for everyone in modern society. It offers a concise, coherent narrative of monetary theory, the history of money, practical economics, and the impact of political policy on business, culture, and the economy. The book contains perhaps one of the best articulations of the virtues of strong money and the dangers of weak currency yet presented in modern business literature. The Bitcoin Standard also masterfully debunks the myths of modern monetary theory and the broken ideas that have dominated the fiat economic school of thought since the early twentieth century. Here concepts of [[Macroeconomics]] such as [[Hard currency]] and weak currency is mentioned. You also have standards, such as [[Gold standard]], [[Silver standard]] and of course the [[Bitcoin standard]]. Currencies are affected by [[Inflation]]. Printing money is bad.
