Where can I find a comprehensive description of exactly how Bitcoin works. I'm not interested in an analogy, I want to know everything, including the maths.

Three resources:
- The Bitcoin white paper.
- The reference implementation.
- The Bitcoin improvement proposals.
maybe you can let us know, what you have done so far, then it might be easier to recommend. A first shot would be "bitcoin.org", and an online version of Andreas' book "Mastering Bitcoin". – pebwindkraft – 2017-12-17T23:33:28.353
I've read the White Paper, thanks to Adam and I've looked at the reference implementation, but seems to just be code, unless I don't know how to read it properly. I've now glanced at the book you mentioned and it looks like that could be what I'm looking for. Thank you. – Mark du Preez – 2017-12-19T08:23:33.970
