Naval Ravikant: "Best book I've read since Sapiens (far less mainstream, though)."

Joel Salatin: "Prophetic about the impacts of the information revolution to democratize everything."

Rees-Mogg and Davidson argue that national governments could soon become as antiquated as 19th-century empires."

Ryan Petersen: "[One of] the best books for business people."

Michael Saylor: "This book blew my mind; it is a work of genius. It put together the technical, economic, motivational and related issues around Bitcoin better than anything I've seen.

The best compliment I can give this book is that I read it and I decided to buy $425m of bitcoin. It was the most impactful on our way of thinking in Microstrategy and it made us want to invert our balance sheet to base it on a bitcoin standard."

Anthony Scaramucci: "This is a seminal work and recommended reading for everyone."

Nassim Taleb: "Bitcoin has no owner, no authority that can decide on its fate. It is owned by the crowd, its users.

And it now has a track record of several years, enough for it to be an animal in its own right.

This gives us, the crowd, an insurance policy against an Orwellian future."

Marc Andreessen: "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."

Balaji Srinivasan: "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!"

Michael Saylor: "One of my favorite books is 'The Moon is a Harsh Mistress'. In it, Robert Heinlein writes about a bunch of loonies - basically Libertarians that live on the moon that believe in making their own way, and their motto is 'There ain't no such thing as a free lunch'"

One of Elon Musk's favorite books about space.

Paul Graham: "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress made me want to work on AI, which led to Lisp."

Michael Saylor: "If you want a great vignette on why it’s important to have capital that’s mobile, study or just read any history of the Warburgs and what their family went through, and what all the Jewish families went through in the 30’s in Germany. And what the bankers had to do to move capital out of the country, and you get a very poignant, punctuated appreciation for the need of having secure capital that you control."

Michael Saylor: "Winston Churchill when he was like 25, wrote a book called the River War. Before he was famous for anything in fact. He was quite the adventurer, he went off to fight in the war in the Sudan under Kitchener. And the entire book is about the British working to win a war in the Sudan"
