Where will the eBook be released, once it is finished? This is obviously not going to be a FREE book.. right?

I have read some of it and I am looking forward to seeing the end product. Good luck... hope everything goes well with the final release.

It will be released on Amazon in September 2024 as a paperback, hardcover and ebook.

Currently putting together 'The Bitcoin History Book' 2008-2024 chapter covering 2020 milestones:

I think I'll still on course to complete the book by September 2024. It seems that the next four months are going to be challenging due to limited time and financial resources.

If you don't know, you can have your name/alias listed in the book for at least US$10 (see donation addresses in OP). Over ten have already been listed, thank you.

Please support the book if you can. There is only myself who has spent over one year writing it.

I messaged him without a reply yet.

Completed pages 50-225 (out of 300). Currently working on 2020 Bitcoin history pages.

Have you asked Theymos? Most people here donated to him, expecting him to support bitcoin projects like he said.

Great news!

I'm still making constructive progress. Currently I'm completing chapter 2019, which I hope will be finished within the next week.

The screenshots are thumbnails of pages 178 to 214 covering January 2017 to March 2019:

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 would recommend you consider getting some professional artwork done

Bad advice to spend money on something that will not increase value.

Nothing wrong with OP artwork, and the draw for this book will not be for the artwork.

Thank you for your comments. I think the book cover is simple and sufficient.

Thank you for putting in the effort to prepare this book, I can understand and empathise with your frustration of not receiving donations. The difficulty is that people if given the option of having something for free, will not pay for it. I would recommend you consider getting some professional artwork done, and then selling the book to order on Amazon to assist with generating sales. You have obviously put in a tireless amount of effort, so you might be feeling underappreciated, but we live in a world where being a creative does not satisfy you monetarily, only for purpose and passion.

Tyke, I like your determination, even though it may be blind. :/

I'd like to see you get some reward for your efforts though - have you thought about selling each page for maybe $1 and then rewarding a full book with $1.50 a page? You control it by making a limited number of certain pages, and you can make $ by giving yourself a % of each automated trade. Of course, you'd have to put the pages on a blockchain. Combine your talent with your audience's passion.

Please let me know where to get this book or is it available in pdf file online if pdf file is available please give me the link.

You'll have to wait until someone donates almost $7k and makes a download link. :/

I've decided to show the chapters:

I hope the Bitcoin community shows some generosity.

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

Chapters covering 2008 to 2016 (128 A4 pages) 100% complete.

Chapters covering 2017 to 30th June 2024 (122 A4 pages) about 50% complete.

I am willing to post the full 2008 to 2016 chapters in PDF format if the community collectively donates

0.0992845 BTC to

Countless hours (most likely 1,000 hours or more) have been spent writing the aforementioned period.

Full book will be released on 12th September 2024!

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.

Please read the opening post, and then consider supporting me as I aim for completion. I'm more determined than ever to get over the finish line.

Well, just my idea why don't you publish this book on different social media platforms and get a payment for this to be downloaded? Maybe you can have a website of your own where you may sell this book.
Yes, it's good that you are giving this book free of cost to everyone on bitcointalk but there is no harm if you charge for it outside this forum.
