Ten years later, and against all odds, this upstart autonomous decentralized software offers an unstoppable and globally-accessible hard money alternative to modern central banks. The Bitcoin Standard analyzes the historical context to the rise of Bitcoin, the economic properties that have allowed it to grow quickly, and its likely economic, political, and social implications. While Bitcoin is a new invention of the digital age, the problem it purports to solve is as old as human society itself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"a-spacing-none a-text-normal\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"productTitle\" class=\"a-size-large celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"t2hdqk-ivw5ad-rh8wgv-y9pg3e\" data-cel-widget=\"productTitle\"\u003eThe Fiat Standard:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-large celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"t2hdqk-ivw5ad-rh8wgv-y9pg3e\" data-cel-widget=\"productTitle\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe Fiat Standard\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, world-renowned economist Saifedean Ammous applies his unique analytical lens to the fiat monetary system, explaining it as a feat of engineering and technology just as he did for bitcoin in his global bestseller The Bitcoin Standard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis time, Ammous delves into the world’s earlier shift from the gold standard to today’s system of government-backed fiat money—outlining the fiat standard’s purposes and failures; deriving the wider economic, political, and social implications of its use; and examining how bitcoin will affect it over time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith penetrating insight, Ammous analyzes global political currencies by analogy to bitcoin: how they’re “mined” whenever government-guaranteed entities create loans, their lack of inherent restraints on inflation, and the rampant government intervention that has resulted in heavy, devastating, and persistent distortions to global markets for food, fuel, science, and educati\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy From urban deals?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📦 \u003cstrong\u003e100% Authentic\u003c\/strong\u003e — sourced directly from verified suppliers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🚀 \u003cstrong\u003eFast Dispatch\u003c\/strong\u003e — ships within 2–4 business days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌍 \u003cstrong\u003eFree Worldwide Shipping\u003c\/strong\u003e on orders over $50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔄 \u003cstrong\u003eFree 15-Day Returns\u003c\/strong\u003e — hassle-free refund or replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e💬 \u003cstrong\u003e24\/7 Support\u003c\/strong\u003e via WhatsApp and email\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"b2b Urban Deals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54552423203188,"sku":"THEBITCOINSTANDARDTHEFIATSTANDARDP","price":28.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/1123\/1092\/files\/Untitled_1dd202f4-693c-4c96-9620-6d53f83e854d.jpg?v=1777462813","url":"https:\/\/urbandeals.us\/products\/the-bitcoin-standard-the-fiat-standard-paperback","provider":"Urban Deals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
