So I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of @Lyn Alden new book in preparation for a podcast we’ll be recording, and all I can say is get ready people! My god get ready...
If you can’t understand the value prop of Bitcoin after reading this book, you’ll never get it. The best part, she doesn’t even discuss bitcoin until chapter 20. 🤣
Mark my words, it’ll be a landmark classic that generations will reference. It's insanely thorough but also very accessible considering the complexity of the material that’s covered.
I think she plans to have it punished very soon (within a month or two), so watch-out for it! It’s the ultimate orange pilling device for people that are intellectually curious.

I can’t wait to read it
Awesome, can't wait for the punishment. 😂
Meow went to cat hell? Bad kitty?
Can’t wait!

Brings questions like, why was the causer of departure?
Bad infection.
That penicillin couldn’t cure?
Embrace the typos on #nostr 😛
Can't wait for it
That's all I know. 😢
You need know when crossing paths with killers and murders these days. Can never be too careful asking. Keeping vigilant when borgs are about.
May her memories bring happiness to mind.
Any repllacement therapy or plan?
any coverage as to the tradeoffs of future and past changes made to the bitcoin protocol?
I feel this is where many btc economic books fall short, treating bitcoin as a sort of ideal ossified state-free solution, rather than a nascent protocol that does change carefully as it’s maintained over time
My friend is done with pets, she says. To much heartbreak.
Can't wait for it to be punished 🔥
Sign me up! @Lyn Alden
The markets pretty cruel eh DGG? Lol
#grammerChef
I’ve never had an interested in a signed book, but after following her for several years and seeing praise like this from Preston… I’m in! Take my Bitcoin! …ironically.
Very intrigued already 🔥
So bullshit on being punished on #norstr
Looking forward. Just read Alex Gladstein's Check your financial privilege and it was amazing, but the more great books, the better.
I hope there will be an audio version soon.

Punish me baby! 

@Lyn Alden can’t wait until this is punished, as Preston says. 😂
And it has graphs! 😁
To cause bad infections?
🤯
@Lyn Alden, are you going to release epub version too? I'd be happy to send equivalent sats for that (and go around the whole Amazon/publisher middleman situation)
Can’t wait.
Ohhhh this is exciting.
I liked pretty much all her work. Can't wait for the book.
Definitely going to read that book.
Absolutely stoked for this! Thanks for letting us know!
Giddy up @Guy Swann
Yeah we are ready to be punished
💸
Thank you for such kind words Preston! Means a lot!
Have you Safedean’s new book and the 4th Turning is hear yet?
Any idea if we can preorder? Looking forward to it, @Lyn Alden
Awesome, I'm looking forward to reading this myself
Imagining Lyn “punishing” the book is too funny, sorry. 🤣
Instant pickup.
Instant buy when available
I love Lyn Aldens work. She's a goat.
I'm not much of a reader myself, I understand better by listening, but I'll clearly gona buy and read it, listen to nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpevs audiobook and "take" of it
Go on Lyn, really looking forward to it
Just like Saifedean not mentioning bitcoin until chapter 8, in The Bitcoin Standard. This is the correct approach. Can't wait! @Lyn Alden
Can’t wait. Release date @Lyn Alden ??
yes, yes and YES! It's fantastic
Can we pre-order?
Incredible! Can’t wait to read it
More @Lyn Alden please
Lyn, would you like it narrated?
No saint goes unpunished

Can you imagine? Some of her Nostro musings to the agitated middle of the road crowd are "wow" !
Based upon @Lyn Alden s response, punished might not actually be a typo 😅
Jealous as fuck! 😁
When can we expect the pod release? 🤙🏼
Let the punishment begin.
Can’t wait till it’s punished.
i am ready
So stoked about the punished part 🤗
@Guy Swann audio already lined up?!
my body is ready for this punishment 🫨
Shut up and take my scarce time and energy
Hehe. Punishes it,…
린알든 책나오나보네요.

Merci🙏💜🫂♾️

Definitely will pre-order!!!! 🍿😁
This platform will succeed just by the people we attract to the platform
Can't wait for a read heavyweight read.
Okay. I'm challenging myself to get prepared. But what's the name of the book, @preston?
Broken Money
Thank you, @Lyn Alden. Feels great to see you here. 💜 I've at last decided to dive into #bitcoin. I'll start with your book. Would you suggest any other more primary book that could help me understand yours? (Just to prepare myself as Broken Money is still a couple of months away from now.)
Have you read the Bitcoin Standard @Newton ?
That's an excellent starting point for your journey.
@npub15dql...lm5m said it's one of the main reasons he spent half a billion dolleroos on BTC.
Pretty high praise! 😆
ᕙ( • ‿ • )ᕗ!!
It’s already so hard on top of my reading list that it hurts 🤣🤣
Sounds good to me. Will gladly get a copy.
Cannot wait to read it when it's out!
It’s so good!!!!
Slowly making my way through. Excellent.
@Lyn Alden any way to pre-order?
I asked that a couple days ago and no response 😢 I'll pay in bitcoin if you'd like @Lyn Alden
Jealous. ☺️
I keep searching amazon periodically for broken money in the hopes to order my copy and all I get is this hit… 😂 

Let’s hope she edits the Bitcoin section to start on chapter 21 !!
Also, I’m getting tired of this Amazon search result for ‘broken money’… 😂 

Hope it will have a french translation later. I'll speak about it on my website anyway but my community being french, some of them prolly don't read english.
If you need an xtra read through, I'm happy to do so!
Lyn, when do you expect this book to be out?
