UPDATE:

I have requested the ISBN number today. This can take max 10 working days (hopefully much less).
Once I have that, the file is submitted to the printer, who can take up to 5 days for approval.
after approval, the order will be fulfilled in 5 days.
There may or may not be a need for me to approve a prototype copy. This would add an extra 5 days.
Once I receive the books, I will sign and number them, and quickly ship them.

Great news and congrats for getting it all done! How many hours have you spent on this project if you had to guess?

Yes, this is exciting! Can't wait for my copy to arrive. Grin

Has the hologram idea been incorporated, and the book itself could have the potential to be a wallet ?

At this point I cannot confirm nor deny, but it looks like it. There would not be a pre-loaded balance, however.

It's just got to be done ! No need for a balance. DIY funding is cool. Just needs to have the potential to be a wallet

I don't know where I would even begin in calculating an estimation. The research, writing, formatting, re-formatting, fine-tuning, photos, photo credits, editing, proofreading, order processing.
Lets just say its way more then I expected... hundreds upon hundreds of hours.

Awesome news, glad it came to fruition and we'll be reading it soon! How long will you be selling physical copies of the book, until the 100 are sold?

I will be printing off the 100, of which about half are already paid for.

I do not believe I will continue to sell books directly after the 'first print' batch has sold, though I might if it makes sense (additional books I sell would not be numbered or have holograms).
The books will be available internationally via various distributors as Print-To-Order. They will of course not be signed or numbered or have any hologram.

Will you still be releasing this later in a pdf book format? I think its all I will be able to afford lol.

Quote from OP:

I will offer the eBook version on Amazon and potentially other sites including my own (www.coinfirm.org).

I am currently working on publication. the print version will be available first, and the ePUB file conversion takes a bit longer. I will also be looking into making the PDF available along with ePUB.

Some people didn't know about this thread until it (maybe) was too late.

I only received the email from the site at:
Date: 2/24/2016 9:36:08 P.M. Pacific Standard Time

Which means, I was already 36 minutes too late in ordering.

I'm happy to keep accepting names for a few more days until the final PDF is done.
I set the deadline so people wouldn't wait till the last possible moment, which always happens Wink

If you recall, I mentioned early on that anyone who makes a pre-order may have their name listed in the book. I am doing this on a request-only basis, as to maintain everyone's privacy. IF you want your name in the book, PM me stating so BY MIDNIGHT EST on WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 24th.
I prefer real names if possible.

Thanks!

To clarify;
The reason I request real names is to give a professional and academic appearance, as opposed to a book about 'internet nerds'.
If you want to stay anonymous, I suggest using a 'real sounding' alias or perhaps taking your username and putting an initial infront of it, if it is one which might be a surname.

One coin to rule them all

Quote from: elianite on February 19, 2016, 02:42:09 PM

I just added a new Sneak Peek!
This image is an excellent example of the final format which we have set on. It is balanced, giving the images the most emphasis when there is not an abundance of text. The grey tables do not stand out too much, and nicely fill up extra space.
All that this needs is a page number and page header at the top.
All entries use this type of grey chart, except for 'multi entries' that are more like the Ravenbit table you saw previously. I have been spending the last few days meticulously formatting everything.

Also, there have been a couple coins that just recently came to our attention. They are being added this weekend. It will be VERY up to date.
Final edits on the 'About the Authors', Author Introduction' and 'Foreword' were just completed.

Shortly, I will be posting the Table of Contents as the ultimate teaser.

Looks awesome! I like that it got that world-coin "feel" to the style and layout.
