I will start by congratulating you on the success you have achieved in putting this material together. I know what it takes to work on things of this nature when it comes to academics or something that involves research, the compilation of different materials, and writing to achieve the goal of publishing a book. I must say that you have gone a long way in putting things together for the sake of the bitcoin community, especially the newbies to having a material of this nature. As you have said, this would be a very good legacy you have left here, and the community would forever be happy about what you have done. This book would serve as enlightenment material which would educate bitcoin enthusiasts more about bitcoin and its inception, the founders, and how they began the bitcoin journey into the world. It is remarkable that a book of this nature has finally emerged.
Congratulations once more.

Much appreciated

I have moments when I think how I've managed to put it together. It won't cover everything related to Bitcoin, but I like to think the major milestones are included.

It is truly incredible and an adventure to find all the history of Bitcoin inside one book. History is never erased, people remember those who work on history forever. It is very difficult to compile all the data or history of Bitcoin into a book, but I think your courage to do so will help us to do many new things and learn new things.

I've completed history chapters covering 2008 to 2017 (pages 44 to 187 - 144 pages).

2017 Chapter:

I will complete 2018 and 2019 before the end of February 2024.

Who is still interested?

Who is looking forward to the complete book in September 2024?

Still seeking feedback of the book interior from the community. Please take time to read parts of it.

Currently writing about 2017 BTC history (pages 172-187)

If you have not already, please read the opening post of this thread. There is a link to a preview of the book interior (not the current status of the pages) covering the early BTC major milestones.

Please support my efforts if you can. There are still 10 full pages (1 page per person, first come first serve) for anyone who wants their BTC story/experience told (see first post 07/01/2024 update).

I'm beginning to doubt the September 2024 book completion deadline, but I will do all I can to achieve it.

More feedback is welcome from the community.

Well i've got to say that this is a very tempting offer, but it is a lot of work to do all of this in exchange for notoriety and I think that ought to be worth it I will have to think on this one! It would be a lot of fun to have my research and work published in this book. I assume you would intend to have this book in a hard back copy, maybe it could even be a major success! It is a fun effort and great concept: a community written history book on bitcoin. Maybe that can be the sequel.

Yes, there will be a hard back copy published. It is already over 50% finished.

Well, if you haven't been in the loop then your book is not complete yet. Here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-puzzle-transaction-32-btc-prize-to-who-solves-it-1306983

It was first 32 Bitcoins, in april 2023 the creator added more than ~~950~~ 870 Bitcoins to the challenge, so now we call it 1000 BTC challenge. 😉

Is there any mention of puzzle challenge in your book? I wouldn't want to go into the history books as a troll. Lol

Which puzzle challenge are you referring to? Please enlighten me. I have momentarily seen a thread, from time to time, on this forum. Is that it?

UPDATE 07/01/2024:

There is an opportunity for 10 people to have their own personal page in the book!

For 0.01 BTC, on a first come first serve basis, one person is allowed to purchase just one page. I invite you to write about your journey with Bitcoin (your participation, best memories, successes, failures etc.). Feel free to include photos.

I have opened the book up for these 10 pages to gain community insights and experience.

If interested, please contact me. The price has been set relatively high to deter too many entries.

More feedback will be much appreciated. I am still on course to complete the 300 A4 page book by September 2024.

Please read the preview book (link in the opening post) to see early BTC years.

Farewell, Leo. You will be missed!

I am on my phone, so I can't check this out in detail, but from what I can see, Mempool.space has a transactions fee historical reference here: https://mempool.space/graphs/mempool#3m.

Play around with the time frames and see if that works for you or not.

I would definitely mention the introduction of Ordinals and the enormous amount of spam that followed ever since. You could talk about what an affect it made on the network fees and how congested the network has been ever since. Perhaps there is a source that shows the average fees each month, so you can show the readers how little you needed to pay in the past and that those days are gone.

Does anyone in the community know a reliable Bitcoin transaction fee historical online resource?

“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.

I would have to agree each time I check this thread the progress is really looking good. I love how this is in the layout of a school text book. I'll definitely be looking forward to taking a gander at the "The Past Milestones" as well it'll be good to have a crisp synopsis of all the main events. Looking forward to seeing the final product. Please do put me on the list to purchase one when the time comes.

Thank you for your praise.
