After watching several of his lectures and interviews online, I've decided that I'm gonna read "The Bitcoin Standard" by Saifedean Ammous to see if it can convince me to become a Bitcoin Maximalist.
Let me know if you've read the book, and what you think of it.

Didn’t read the book! I’m anxious to hear your results. I personally tend to be diversified, but it doesn’t mean I couldn’t start adding bitcoin “only” to my portfolio.
Sorry for your eye! First thing that ran through my mind you felt while recording video on the rocky beach and poked your eye with your finger lol. Heal soon!!!

To be honest with you, only stories a read willingly are stories on steemit. Following few writers who post their novels here on steemit platform. With that said, I haven’t read the book. However, I’m very anxious to hear your suggestions. At some point I see sense in “bitcoin maximalist”. That’s the way it works so far, whenever bitcoin goes, everything else follows.

I'm on Audible as well, love it! I already used this months token, on a CS Lewis book, next month I think I might try this title. Hmmm unless Andreas Antonopoulos' Bitcoin books are also on that platform, if so, its time for some Bitcoin education, ANDREAS-style.

I don't like the term "maximalist", sounds too authotarian to me.

I think if you need to find some of the best writers' books in order to gain accurate knowledge about cryptocurrency and bitcoin through the book, you must know about the cryptocurrency you read about in the book, in that case you need to know about the author, because the authors should correctly know the cryptocurrency In the case of Bitcoin, he must be in his book He mentioned each of his words.

Just watched your youtube video and I found it very good that you have discussed some of the very best things in this video that you constantly do because you are a skilled person about cryptocurrency.
In that case, to express my right idea to those issues, I must definitely learn about this book, in that case, I think this book is based on the basis of the plane, we all should talk about Bitcoin and it is right about this book. Knowledge should be acquired.

Mr. @louisthomas, You have been discussing cryptocurrency and bitcoin for a long time, which has a very good influence on this community. You can find out about an important person who can accurately investigate cryptocurrency and Bitcoin. I have not given proper knowledge about the book that you have mentioned about today. The book may also have some very valuable information in it.

I don't necessarily subscribe to the idea of Bitcoin maximalism but I have heard and listened to these opinions for some time now. I have immense respect for the guys who have done their due diligence and also speak from a position of technical experience.
But so far down the line I haven't been convinced by what I have seen. I am still a firm believer in sensible diversification. I have never heard about Saifedean Ammous and will like to listen to his opinion. Although I am afraid that I probably wont be reading the book anytime soon because my 'to read list' already under a lot of load. A few months ago yous suggested a few books that included 'Antifragile' as well and I have kept it in my to read list but havn't been able to reach it yet.
As of now I am open to all ideas and theories that can increase my understanding of the cryptosphere and the DLT. So maybe sometime in near future I'd like to get to this book too............

For me it depends in what way think about it... I absolutely believe that BTC will be the top alternative for store of value but given its structure and other concerns, I think that using it as a straight forward currency will be difficult particularly considering the faster, well-established alternatives like BCH and LTC. On another point of view, there is no way BTC will be able to do what other projects are doing in other sectors like Ethereum and EOS for platform or Dash and Monero for privacy, among many other use cases.

I have read the book. It didn't turn me into a maximalist necessarily, but it did make me shift my portfolio percentages significantly (80% bitcoin now). Will be very interested to see how it impacts your thinking
