Bitcoin links
In the first place, read the 9-pages-short whitepaper from bitcoin.org or use mirror1, mirror2 (https://bitcoin.anyone.eu.org). Or you can also listen to it.
Here, have a look at some links:
- C-SPAN (search for ‘bitcoin’ there)
- movies:
- The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin
- other movies mentioned at bitcoin.org resources
- Hard Money
- CoinDesk videos:
- Bitcoin is Hope (was: https://www.microstrategy.com/en/bitcoin)

Read A Treatise on Altcoins (or mirror) for a more in-depth analysis on the topic of crypto-currencies other than Bitcoin.
