This well researched book fills the gaps for anyone who saw the story unfold in the headlines and creates a rich tapestry for those that are new to the Bitcoin scene. It will be enjoyed by anyone who has a casual interest in business or finance but especially those who are or want to be involved in Bitcoin.
The first act is by far the strongest, showing how the Twins fought their betrayal by Zuckerburg, no one will leave this book thinking anything but the worst of the later. The inciteful insights into this are incredibly interesting and enjoyable to read.
Unfortunately the "betrayal" that unfolds in the later two acts didn't quite live up to their earlier betrayal and just felt a little pushed (it was more of a head in the sand moment). It also didn't come as a surprise, although maybe that's because I remember it happening...
The worst part, of this very good and enjoyable book, is that the story isn't over, it has only just begun. An example of which is that Facebook have now announced "Global Coin" and have had discussions with Gemini. This would have been a far better ending that the blog post from Zuckerburg that features as the last words.
I hope Ben does a hat trick and sells this for a movie (I loved 21 and The Social Network), I know they'll have to cut a lot out but I think they will also be able to even more by bringing it to a wider audience.
I very much recommend this book.
