The Internet of Money: Talks by Andreas M. Antonopoulos

Bitcoin, a technological breakthrough quietly introduced to the world in 2008, is transforming much more than finance. While many books explain the how of bitcoin, The Internet of Money delves into the why of bitcoin. It examines and contextualizes the significance of bitcoin through a series of essays spanning the exhilarating maturation of this technology. Moreover, this book goes beyond exploring the technical functioning of the bitcoin network by illuminating bitcoin's philosophical, social, and historical implications.

Praise for The Internet of Money


"I've always wondered what would have happened if we had built one-click payments into the browser from the very beginning. With bitcoin, we finally get this 'Internet of Money'. But this book isn't just an ode to bitcoin — it's an ode to open protocols, what happens when you connect people online, and the power of innovation on the Internet."

Marc Andreessen, Co-Founder, Netscape and Andreessen Horowitz


"With Mastering Bitcoin, Andreas Antonopoulos wrote one of the best technical books on digital currency. With The Internet of Money, he's matched that feat by compiling his talks into one of the best books on bitcoin for a broad audience. Highly recommended!"

Balaji Srinivasan, CEO, 21.co


"Over the past three years, awareness of the sweeping, transformative potential of bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology has grown exponentially. That required people to grasp not only how this unorthodox technology worked but also its profound promise for society. No one has done more than Andreas Antonopoulos to get them over that hurdle. Read him. It will make you wiser."

Michael J. Casey, co-author of The Age of Cryptocurrency
