Nick Szabo's "The Origins of Money" is essential reading for understanding why $BTC works.
Before central banks, before gold standards, money emerged naturally from collectibles and social trust systems. Szabo breaks down how shells, beads, and rare objects became the first store of value—not because governments said so, but because they were:
• Scarce
• Durable
• Portable
• Hard to fake
Sound familiar?
$BTC is the digital evolution of this ancient pattern. Fixed supply, provably scarce, globally portable, unforgeable. It's not "new money"—it's the oldest form of money rebuilt for the internet age.
If you're serious about crypto, read Szabo. He laid the intellectual groundwork for Bitcoin before Satoshi even showed up.
