I really enjoyed reading the original Bitcoin whitepaper. It described complicated concepts in clear, simple terms. It just made sense to me.

Are there other whitepapers in the distributed ledger space that are similar, from a readability perspective? Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

The Ethereum whitepaper is fairly similar in terms of readability.

and then have fun reading eth's yellow paper https://ethereum.github.io/yellowpaper/paper.pdf and its subtle rules

Maybe, but nowhere close in conciseness. The Bitcoin paper is something like 10 pages while Ethereum is something like 40 pages, and not counting the pages from the "yellow" paper.
