Actually, Snow Crash got there five years earlier.

Snow Crash, Ted Chiang, Greg Egan, Three Body Problem...

— Naval Ravikant

A deeply thought provoking sci-fi story from the darker corners of the Internet. Inspired by Borges, Lovecraft and Neal Stephenson, weaving in blockchains and AI. https://t.co/Qt4CPBIcRz

Snow Crash is still my favorite. Try the Transmetropolitan graphic novel for a similar flavor.

— Naval Ravikant

Snow Crash, Ted Chiang, and Borges too. I should make a list...

I have many, but JL Borges, Ted Chiang, and Neal Stephenson are at the top for me. https://t.co/CiZ7L6bW9U

I still recommend Snow Crash. If anybody here is into sci-fi at all and has not read Snow Crash, it is an incredible cyberpunk novel written probably 20 years ago now. Still incredibly forward looking; in some ways it predicted cryptocurrencies, it predicted virtual reality, it predicted parts of the internet. Amazing book, had a huge influence on me. Now, that may not speak to you anymore. It’s 20 years later, [and] you’re probably younger than me, so the right book at the right time will speak to you in a way the right book at the wrong time just won’t. In fact, the same book picked up 20 years later can have a huge impact. That’s how Krishnamurti was for me. I read him in my twenties; didn’t make sense. I read him in my late thirties; changed my life. You know sometimes you’re just not ready for the book, or the book is a conversation between the reader and the author and ... one party isn’t ready.

Stephenson, Snow Crash, amazing, amazing book. He also did The Diamond Age. There’s nothing quite similar to Snow Crash. Snow Crash is in a league of its own.

Read Snow Crash?

— Naval Ravikant

For me personally, if I was going to read science fiction or if I liked technology, I would read Snow Crash. It’s old but it’s brilliant. Neal Stephenson predicts everything from Bitcoin to the internet to virtual reality to nation states, you name it, encryption.

Snow Crash, for example, starts out very strong.

@balajis In Snow Crash (must read), people love their real lives online, physical bodies change countries and living spaces at a whim.
