I have barely been active in the past months so I missed the updates completely until now and I just saw you now have a deadline. Congratulations, this is persistence and I hope it will really pay off well.
Depending on how the sales will go, do you consider writing some sort of 'expansion packs' for the History Book after the release of this one?

It looks like you are putting a lot of effort into the book. I like that you have done a thorough job of researching, especially the first few years. Some criticisms:
Have you considered a Kickstarter campaign rather than asking for donations?
- 1. Too much orange. I like the idea of orange accents since that is Bitcoin's color, but it isn't really a very pleasant color and there is just too much of it.
- 2. There is too much emphasis on the price throughout the book. I like the price tracking in the side bar and I think that notable events regarding the price are appropriate, but I feel like yearly fiat price history sections with the graphs and the tables showing the monthly changes are too much. Anyway, that's not something that people are going to read because it is just data.

Let's just say I cannot please everyone. The book content is the way it is. Thank you for your feedback.

Bitcoin history pages from inception to October 2018 fully complete. I anticipate 2008-2019 complete this month.
Other yearly chapters are currently in annotatee draft format. I look forward to finishing 2020-2023 by the end of June 2024.
Please send feedback on the 2008-2016 content, and don't forget to support my efforts (read opening post). I will do my utmost, whilst working full-time hours for my day job, to finish the book in the summer.
Thank you to all those who have already donated to the book. All your names/aliases will be listed in the book.

I will release the Bitcoin History book chapters 2008 to 2016 (pages 50 to 177) at around 23:00 UTC tonight. The only pages incompleted are the chapter summary pages, which will be written when all other pages are done.
I hope the community will show generosity, because I have chosen to freely release 128 pages. I've spent countless hours putting it together, and know how special Bitcoin history is.
I look forward to all your comments about the above imminent release.
Happy Easter

If it doesn't Mention the Bitcoin Town Plan and the Bitcointalk Attack on the Project, then it's not a Complete Book.

I'm slightly disappointed tgat the community hasn't supported me as much as I thought they would have. Nevertheless, whoever buys the book in September 2024 will have no excuses to forget major milestones and price history metrics. I also cover Bitcoin network hashrate history, Bitcoin Core wallets upgrades, soft forks, hacks, scams, the scaling debate, and more much.
300 A4 Colour pages covering Bitcoin history up to and including 30th June 2024!

Congratulations for the initiative to start writing such a book. It's by now means an easy task and it requires tons of research and time put into it, but I'm sure it will all be worth it at some point in the future. I've taken a glance through the first chapters and considering you are not a professional writer and I'm assuming you've never done a project like this in the past, at least not at this scale, it looks great. The information seems well structured and it includes links, photos and quotes to better understand it.
I don't think I'm in a position to give you any suggestions, I just wanted to encourage to keep going and take this project to the end because such projects are of great benefit to Bitcoin community not only for present but especially for the future generations.

Currently consolidating Bitcoin history from 2008 to 2019 by reading print-outs. If I have missed any important information, it is ample opportunity to find out.
Once the above is done, 2020 to 2023 is next.
I won't be showing book interiors from now on. The book will hopefully be on sale in September 2024.

“The Past Milestones”, the index is just amazing and it’s making me read the book already. This is definitely going to be detailed book considering the index titles from domain registration to how it started with email communications, yeah that gives me good insight about this book and what is expected from it. I think we are going to have very nice book soon just because of one active and enthusiastic member.
I just wanna say, keep it up. I will contact you regarding donation after few days once I get my salaries rolled over by my employer. Being Bitcoin lover I would be more than happy to donate small share for your good work. All the very best mate. Hope to see your copy released real soon.
