Bitcoin Resources (from crypto 102 course by David])

  • Annotated BTC WP: https://medium.com/coinmonks/bitcoin-white-paper-down-into-the-rabbit-hole-efbaeba3a83e

  • Bitcoin Tech explained: https://learnmeabitcoin.com/

    • Focus on https://learnmeabitcoin.com/technical/#how-to-become-a-bitcoin-programmer part

      • “Bitcoin is an open-source program, so you can read the code and write your own code to interact with it if you want to. I found the best way to learn how it works is to create your own simple tools.”

      • “You can read about how bitcoin works as much as you want, but until you start coding, making mistakes (which you will), and building some useful tools, you're never going to make progress. So don't be afraid to give it a go. We've all got to start somewhere.”
