Jeffrey, Turns out one=of Martin's students, Julian is in my class. We chatted afterwards, I figured you'd like some of these links so forward=ng...

I particularly reco=mend Fake Version Changing, Gap Mining, and Selfish mining, the other stuf= is more introductory on Bitcoin's model.

Hi Julian,

Was great talking=with you after class. I definitely think you should think about doing some=Bitcoin research at PED -- here are some links to get you going (don't=be overloaded by them, but there is good shit here! Maybe PED should do a =eading group):

My philosophical POV is =hat bitcoin is a lot like the bourgeois strategy in hawk dove -- it provid=s a common rule we can defect to reliably for resolving disputes. But ther.'s so much more layered in how that rule gets made.

Cheers,

Jeremy
