If you're starting from scratch, I'd recommend this Khan academy course (it's short and sweet): https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/bitcoin-what-is-it https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-fi... There's a lot more advanced stuff out there (as you can see in the other comments) that I would touch on once I have a rough overview. A lot changes in the crypto world month-to-month, and so forums like Reddit and Twitter are usually the best to stay up to date. Unfortunately, there's a lot of useless chunder on these forums you'll have to learn to filter to get access to the quality stuff. Personally, I avoid the fanboys/girls and like following people who are more critical of the space. Because of this, I've discontinued following r/Bitcoin on Reddit (I'm sure there're smart people out there—there was just too much I didn't agree with and decided to leave). Some of my favorites today are: - patio11 on Twitter - prestonbyrne.com website and Twitter - buttcoin on Twitter - Tim Swanson (ofnumbers on Twitter) - Bitfinexd on Twitter - http://thereformedbroker.com/2017/11/27/it-just-got-real/ http://thereformedbroker.com/2017/11/27/it-just-got-real/ I know this is more of a crypto pessimist crowd but I tend to agree with their views way more than the rest of the herd. I think they're a lot more rational and highlight some great things to look out for. I would encourage you to fish for some of the rational optimists as well. If anyone has recommendations, I'm all ears!
