When a pseudonymous programmer introduced “a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party” to a small Online mailing list in 2008, very few paid attention. 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.

This 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.

Story
We live in an extraordinary time. Technological advances are happening at a rate faster than our ability to understand them, and in a world that moves faster than we can imagine, we cannot afford to stand still. These advances bring efficiency and abundance - and they are profoundly deflationary. Our economic systems were built for a pre-technology era when labor and capital were inextricably linked - an era that counted on growth and inflation and an era where we made money from inefficiency.

The real crisis facing the world is explosive government debt and deficits. Governments are now left with no choice but to spend more than they make, borrow more than they can ever repay, and devalue their currencies to cover it all up.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Summary
From legendary investor Ray Dalio, author of the international best seller Principles, who has spent half a century studying global economies and markets, Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order examines history’s most turbulent economic and political periods to reveal why the times ahead will likely be radically different from those we’ve experienced in our lifetimes - but similar to those that have happened many times before.
A few years ago, Ray Dalio noticed a confluence of political and economic conditions he hadn’t encountered before. They included huge debts and zero or near-zero interest rates that led to massive printing of money in the world’s three major reserve currencies, big political and social conflicts within countries, especially the US, due to the largest wealth, political and values disparities in more than 100 years and the rising of a world power (China) to challenge the existing world power (US) and the existing world order. The last time that this confluence occurred was between 1930 and 1945. This realisation sent Dalio on a search for the repeating patterns and cause/effect relationships underlying all major changes in wealth and power over the last 500 years.
In this remarkable and timely addition to his Principles series, Dalio brings listeners along for his study of the major empires - including the Dutch, the British and the American - putting into perspective the 'Big Cycle' that has driven the successes and failures of all the world’s major countries throughout history.
Dalio reveals the timeless and universal forces behind these shifts and uses them to look into the future, offering practical principles for positioning oneself for what’s ahead.

A New Appreciation for Macro Politics & Economics
Dalio never lets me down when synthesizing truly complex ideas and converging topics and turning them into something digestible. This book opened my eyes to what is really driving the loggerhead situation between the US and china and how it coincides with history that could bring us to a highly dangerous situation.
The book talks about long time frames, keeps the analysis relevant and shows how certain elements of the past typically determine the next phase of the future. Its similar to political cycle theory which has helped me trade stocks and assets knowing how to position myself and protect my family.
As someone who was very "anti-China" I also have a knew found understanding of how they position themselves as an emerging world power, the context behind it and likewise the strategy involved - typically over a very long period of time. Super interesting book and an absolute asset for people looking to explore these issues in more depth!

One of the most important books of 2021
If you only have time for one more book this year, I'd highly recommend this one:"Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order,
Why Nations Succeed or Fail." by Ray Dalio. In his characteristicly unswerving "seek truth through facts" manner, Dalio examines two thousand years of political and economic history and draws his conclusions. It is also full of very interesting graphs and tables. Not suitable for bedtime lecture though.

Great Book, PDF needs to be improved
The book is worth listening to and helpful in this turbulent times.
What needs to be improved is the accompanying PDF. All the graphs are simply chronologically in the PDF without any further information. At least the graphs could have been sorted I think chapters, better would be if even timestamps would be available that indicate I have which parts of the book they are talked about.

Questionable
Ray is overly sympathetic to China in this book and inflates their historical significance in free market capitalism and future success. He has intentionally or unintentionally omitted huge factors as to why China is fundamentally different to the rising historical powers of the British (after the Dutch) and America. If you get over the fact that some areas of the book are a love letter to the CCP, then you'll find some interesting points and a generally good book.

Traveling through time
I really enjoyed listening to it. The pace was just perfect and the narrators did a tremendous job in delivering the story. I have to say that my interests and affinities do not really encompass the subject of history, but the way this book treated the economical development of the world (and not only that) through the means of past centuries upon recent times, made me get comfortable with the topic at hand and honestly changed quite a lot of perspectives of mine regarding 'the world order'. It was a pleasant, thought provoking and insightful audiobook, overall. It managed to illuminate my mind, thing that most other books that I have read did not succeed to do in this regard.
