Topic: The quintessential Bitcoin book, inspired by... (Read 745 times)
Still seeking a Bitcoin-themed jacket design.
Sounds expensive to print. Maybe include one bitcoin embedded in the book, make it a book/paper wallet novelty item coffee table chat piece
Limited collectors edition, 100 copies only. Price: 2BTC

Coffee table size is a given, on several levels (right, Rassah?), with a limited collector's edition of 2,100 copies of which each has at least 10 autographs by various notables from the Bitcoin community.
I believe that your price point for the LE copies may be a tad steep. I suggest selling them at the exact same price others would sell for but, along with the autographs, include free standard shipping if located in the continental US and...wait for it...they're all pre-ordered, thus procuring the start-up cost.
I'll even throw in a BPP (Buyer Protection Program) to protect their investment: If I fail to ship within Two Weeks™ after the firmly set release date, buyers of LEs (read Batch 1 or Limited Editions) will receive 4 standard copies absolutely free, along with their LE copy.
Now, about the jacket design sans title. Suggestions?

The idea: A titleless book with nothing but 21,000,000 random 0s and 1s in a tiny font size with 2,100 pages... and no two copies alike (text-wise).
All I need now is an idea for the jacket image, and we're ready to print.
Suggestions?

JERUSALEM — There is no plot to speak of, and the characters are woefully undeveloped. On the upside, it can be a quick read — especially considering its 1,250 pages.
The book, more art than literature, consists of the single word “Jew,” in tiny type, printed six million times to signify the number of Jews killed during the Holocaust. It is meant as a kind of coffee-table monument of memory, a conversation starter and thought provoker.

Its titleless cover depicts a Jewish prayer shawl, sometimes used to wrap bodies for burial. Mr. Chernofsky said it was Gefen’s choice; he would have preferred solid black, or a yellow star like those the Nazis made Jews wear.
