I thought this was a very solid book. I'd recommend giving it a read for the crypto skeptical. I had my own understanding of crypto which was pretty well validated.. but it did serve to educate me on some recent developments in that space (like ethereum's proof-of-stake migration). My broader notes on the book are here: notes.justin.abrah.ms/posts/20240822233107-read_write_own and my views on crypto before reading the book are here: justin.abrah.ms/2022-01-27-my-thoughts-on-crypto.html

This is an awesome book that deals with future economies, workers rights, transnational corporations, and unionizing in the face of thugs and oppressive governments.High recommend.

Great format for a book that gives an overview of technical and business topics. The outsider with all the answers was a little weird, but I'm not sure how else you'd discuss the ideal path.

Such a fun book

Such a fun book to read. I've been thinking about the characters for the past few days and I've enjoyed it a bunch!

Not bad but stuffy names

I liked the book. I'd read even more if there was more to read. I found the names to be a bit obstructive to reading. They are too similar, too numerous and could have just as well done without them in many cases.

Solid and down to earth

I loved the vibrant wording and harkening back to the era of trains. There are lots of parallels today of the downtrodden, though these days the white poor are a bit better off than they were.
