Why read it?
1 author picked The Basilisk Murders as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The Basilisk Murders is a mystery centred on the Bay Area “transhumanist” subculture—another offshoot of the Californian Ideology that gave rise to bitcoin, and with much of the same style of grandiose bad thinking, ill-directed idealism, and an undercurrent of fraud.

From David's list on cryptocurrency and finance crimes.
