It was a decent move imo. While the hashtags are unrelated, it gives good visibility for the tweet. Don't forget that while you like it or not, a good chunk of people who follow those hashtags could be interested in such books as well.

Maybe they would be interested, but maybe not - because I doubt that people who are mostly deeply immersed in altcoins have the slightest desire to study the history of Bitcoin. If we're going to be honest, for many, the history of Bitcoin only begins at the end of 2017, when Bitcoin actually entered the mainstream.

I can't say for sure, but it seems that I read on the forum a few years ago that someone had a similar idea as the OP, so although I have nothing against people writing books, a good part of the history of Bitcoin is also contained on this forum. In any case, I hope that the book will not promote things that have nothing to do with Bitcoin, as is usually the case nowadays.

What I also don't like are the hashtags you use in your post, because what does your Bitcoin book have to do with all those altcoins you're indirectly promoting?

Yeah, I'm cool with everything else except the altcoin hashtags. Not that I'm uncool with it, either, it just rubs off the wrong way. Bitcoin clones, Litecoin, even Ethereum might be worth mentioning if related to, in the book itself, but xrparmy especially made me cringe.

Still, credit where it's due. Books aren't... simple tasks to complete. Best of luck.

I will join those who don't understand why their name should be published in your book even if they donate $2? Would these names be in the sense of something like "special thanks to the members of the bitcointalk forum for their support in writing the book", or in some other context? There were definitely members on the forum who are worth mentioning in the book, and there are also those who are active today, and I hope that they will be mentioned without donating anything.

Publish it mate, would love to read it, without the Roger Ver drama.

Why should the book be without the Roger Ver drama? The BCH and BSV debacles are one of the biggest swindling attempts in the entire Bitcoin space; it should definitely be added in.

Because it's a small thing, blown out of proposition. There are much bigger debacles. Hope he writes about it.

Initial Bitcoin history research is complete!

Currently writing the first draft of a 300+ A4 page Bitcoin history paperback/hardcover book for tentative release in late 2024/early 2025. It will be a detailed and thorough account of important Bitcoin milestones since August 2008 (when the www.bitcoin.org website was registered).

I am determined to include as much information relating to Bitcoin as possible.

Please retweet and like the following tweet, and consider supporting the project:

Writing a historical book is not an easy task, especially in this current economic reality where many things tend to distract the mind. I want to encourage you to keep on doing your best to ensure that this book comes to reality. It seems that your intentions are good because you want to keep the story of bitcoin alive. You have my support and if the book is completed please ensure you inform the community so that we can grab copies of this historical book. I pray that you have access to all the materials that you need to make this uncommon task successful. For now, I wish you all the best.

Thank you. I will give all before death Tongue

I'm sure his name will be in the book, but the drama definitely won't dominate parts of the book.

You have shared a tweet link where you were asking for a $2 donation (or charge) from people to get their name on the book. You are writing the history, how would you name anyone in the book? And what if there are 500 people? You will write the history or names of people?
The amount is so small but still, it doesn't look any better than a donation begging.
You are an old member of the forum. I always have some soft corners in my mind for the old users of the forum because you are the reason we have this beautiful place. I'm sad you are linking this in your post.

Sorry you feel that way inclined. I have been part of the crypto space for 10 years. I have participated by writing crypto history books for moderate and smaller projects since 2014.

I want to write something special and informative for the Bitcoin community. It will help newbies discover what has happened since inception in 2008. I hope you don't see it as begging. I seek to include members of the community in the effort (by small donations) to complete the book to the best of my ability.

Thank you for replying

Besides, I have devoted countless hours to the Bitcoin and crypto space over 10 years. I am not seeking to scam anyone x

An interesting part of Bitcoin history is a scam attempt of Roger Ver team in 2017. Their team attempted to claim that their coin is a real Bitcoin and they tried to scam people on their website.

Has Bitcoin.com stopped presenting Bitcoin Cash as the real Bitcoin?
To newcomers: make sure when you buy bitcoin you are buying bitcoin!

I looked at your Twitter with some photos that show about Mt.Gox. I did not see any blue print of your book and I don't know you had Roger Ver team scam attempt in your book or forgot about it. 2 cents to share.

Here is a link showing how the interior of the Bitcoin 2008-2024 history book looks and feels:

I hope the layout gives you an insight into what I'm trying to achieve over the next couple of years. I look forward to support from the community as I progress with the first draft. I have already collated hundreds of pages of notes relevant to BTC historical events. I won't compromise on the layout, especially 16 pages per year.

If anyone has feedback, please fire away!
