I wish I could plant the btc down for one of these! Bump for a great idea.

Yes, I suggested an autographed version to make a hard copy worthwhile.
You send the person the page/ book with a Self Addressed Stamped return envelope in your package.
I did it all the time years ago for celebrities.

Elianite, sounds like a very cool idea and I wish you great luck with it.
If you make a high quality version on Casascius coins only, i'm in - seriously, i'd sign up today.
I'm not a fan of any of the other physical bitcoins. To me, they're all just copycats of Casascius and don't hold a fraction of value to the original. They're cheap imitations of the original. If I'm offending anyone, it's not intentional, just my true feelings.
As for your book, can you share any early prints or screenshots so people know the general look of what they'r buying? IF there's anything additional I can do to help, please let me know.
If you make a Casascius only version I'd also pay a premium if it was signed by Mike Caldwell. Cheers!

As far as I remember that was discussed before (having the coin creators sign the books). It may be in this thread or in an earlier one.
You're entitled to your views on the coins but I think even just getting Mike alone to sign 20 books or so would be quite difficult.
He may not necessarily want to and even if he did, how would shipping work from there?
I guess if you buy one you could always send it to Mike with a prepaid return envelope and ask him to sign your copy.
With regards to a Casascius only book, the original eBook only talks about Casacius. Creating a new one in paperback on Casascius may not be successful as even with all these other coin manufacturers there doesn't seem to be enough people who are willing to pay for one.

I am curious who the 8 good souls are ... I am 1 of them. Happy to state publicly.
I think this is will be a great resource for the community, and I am surprised that more than 8 arent either interested in a hard copy first issue of the book, or dont want to support the project so that it happens
Wondering how we can collectively help to make it happen, as it would be a crying shame if it didnt
It seems unlikely that given the duration that has passed that another 17 are gonna come forward.
Bottom line ... what do you need to make it happen Elianite ?
As we have PM'd before, happy to assist in proof reading drafts, seeing if there is anything else I (we all ?) can do

Im already on the list. I agree would be a crying shame if it could not happen. Great first ebook. And im sure the next one will be right up to par. Im all for helping whatever needs to be done as well.

any chance of launching it as e-book, for example, on amazon?
So we would be able to get future upgrades without having to order again, and no need of shipping etc, while you will be sure that the e-book won't leak

My intention all along has been to make the book freely available at coinfirm.org
As such, 'leaking' wont be an issue; im putting this out there for free. the print edition is just an ;extra special' aspect

I'm interested. I would like to see an examples of the design (cover/spreads). Is it printed in offset?
Cheers

I havent yet finalized where I will have it produced, but I expect to have it done in 'standard color'
for an example of what the spreads will look like, see my first book at www.coinfirm,org
The spreads will be very much similar, but I have not yet designed the cover. I will look into offset printing.

I think its only worth getting in physical form if its done professionally vs something I could photocopy myself.
It may be a challenge selling a physical version if the digital one is still free.
How about a ultra edition signed by many of the coin makers? I collect autographs too, so it would be a perfect fit for me.

Thats a cool idea, but honestly the logistics of it are daunting. I dont know how many people would be that interested in the autographs, and there are a huge number of manufacturers to deal with. Im going to have to pass up on this suggestion, even though it would be sweet.
Maybe you could only get the main ones/biggest...
