You do know about search engines, right? Just type it in and you'll get loads of results. Here's one paper I found if you really need it.
Bitcoin isn’t just about cryptography, you know. It’s also about state machine replication and incentive theory. I think its biggest impact is in how it introduced new concepts in SMR. Tim Roughgarden’s Foundations of Blockchains is a great resource for this stuff.
Thanks, baro77! That sounds super interesting, I’ll definitely check it out!
