 My Whitepaper story

Like many of us, I came to Bitcoin from altcoins. When I started learning all the blockchain stuff, dogecoin was breaking all-time high almost every single day, while Bitcoin seemed unattractive for a new crypto investor.

But the euphoria that lasted for about a year had come to an end and the Bear Market started. And that's when I began studying and gained an understanding of what Bitcoin is.. Now, my previous thoughts seem hilarious to me.

Regarding the Whitepaper, it was the document I started learning from. As an English teacher, I am not a very tech savvy person, and learning all the cryptography concepts was a little arduous for me. But here I am, now I am aware of every single aspect of Bitcoin, and looking forward to seeing what’s going to happen next.

In my opinion, while the Whitepaper is the most crucial document about Bitcoin that everyone should read, I would recommend starting with the MIT course about Bitcoin and Blockchain, with Gary Gensler as a lecturer.
