• S2: Read the Bitcoin whitepaper
• S3: read (some of) the Ethereum whitepaper (PDF): you can skip (or quickly browse) the first 3 sub-parts of the ‘History’ section (‘Bitcoin’, ‘Mining’, and ‘Merkle Trees’); also skip the ‘references and further reading’ section at the end; what’s left is 24 pages in the PDF to read
