Crypto for Absolute Beginners — A Researcher’s Perspective
Following one of the recent Tokyo FinTech Meetups, we published the “Bitcoin for Absolute Beginners Reading List”, which is somewhat biased towards understanding the underlying technology and protocols. Last night, Scherzade Agha, a Fulbright Scholar who started developing a deeper understanding of cryptocurrencies last year, presented an alternative, more academically-focused reading list. Given Scherzade’s interest in valuations and financial modeling, that is where the focus of this very deep reading list is. Thank you for sharing, Scherzade!
