Ask HN: Where to read about crypto?

1 points by bitcurious ↗ HN
It seems that the majority of information out there about the various cryptocurrencies falls into two categories:

1. It's a Ponzi scheme/bubble/worthless.

2. Crypto take over the world! And by crypto I mean this coin I own a lot of.

Where can I find reasonable discussion of the technical merits and promise of various coins?

P.S. What's your favorite?

I was about to refer you to Schneier's Applied Cryptography — using 'crypto' in your title is misleading: you mean cryptocurrencies... but IT has used the term 'crypto' for decades already to mean cryptography.
