## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learning is awesome
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 9, 2026*

It is very detailed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If your looking at bitcoin program/concepts this is a wonderful start.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 24, 2026*

This is a more important book then most people will probably realize... It's not perfect. but if your looking to connect concepts to build connections between thoughts and doing... then this is probably the single most best resources you are going to find.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ See how the sausage is made
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 31, 2022*

Excellent, in-depth, technical overview of how bitcoin works under the hood. This book is a hands-on project book that will take you through building a proof-of-concept bitcoin library, step-by-step. The library you'll build can parse and validate transactions, verify blocks, interact with other nodes on the bitcoin network and more.Like other reviews mentioned, this is an advance level book. It's not a book for folks new to bitcoin or folks without programming experience. I also agree that reading Mastering Bitcoin first will make this book a much better experience because you'll know where each of the modules you're building fits in the bigger picture.The author has set up the hands-on project as Jupyter Notebooks which makes it really nice to code along the text. In addition, he goes into more details on the math behind elliptic curve cryptography which I appreciated. Overall, highly recommended for people that want to remove the veil and see how bitcoin works to the smallest detail.
