Bitcoin: A Tale of Two Monies: A Story of Money, Power, and Revolution Retold for Our Time

What if money itself could be resurrected? In A Tale of Two Cities , Charles Dickens wrote about a man recalled to life after eighteen years of imprisonment. In 2009, an anonymous programmer launched a protocol that would recall honest money from its own long imprisonment under central banking. Bitcoin: A Tale of Two Monies tells Bitcoin's complete story — from Satoshi Nakamoto's genesis block through the scaling wars, institutional adoption, platform collapses, and regulatory assaults — using Dickens' classic structure to reveal what both tales share: resurrection through suffering, conviction tested by crisis, and the golden thread of principle that holds when everything else fails. This is not a technical manual or an investment guide. It's the story of how a mathematical protocol proved that scarcity could be absolute, that truth could be written in code, and that honest money — like Dr. Manette in Dickens' tale — could learn to live again.
