I have not read any books about bitcoin or crypto, but it did not prevent me from trading and understanding how it works
I felt the same way before I read the book. Now I know how wrong I was.
We can really trade without knowing the full story of cryptocurrency, its a choice if you really want to know more and understand its origin the you can do a lot of studies. I do read books before and they are just theories but because of that ive learn a lot so somehow its worth it.
