In this book, Crisis Magazine editor and author Eric Sammons argues that although in its early days bitcoin was known as the currency of drug-dealers and criminals, it is in fact the most moral money ever created and that it outshines our current economic system, which empowers the corrupt and corrupts the powerful.

Sammons examines how our current form of money developed, and offers a deep dive look at why our government-issued money—also known as “fiat money”—is actually a devolution in the history of money. He goes on to argue that bitcoin is the next step in money, one that overcomes the deficiencies inherent in fiat money. Sammons further lays out what bitcoin is, how it is designed and operates, and how to safely purchase and hold it, incisively arguing that it is the most efficacious form of money while quelling numerous misconceptions.
