A common theme, I find across books related to Bitcoin is the author's individual explanation on what Bitcoin is.
I will try to avoid doing the same and probably quote from other , better explanations instead of repeating things.
What I intend for the book to be is a representation of the core beliefs and practices Satoshi left us with. While a lot of work has gone into figuring out who he is - there's little insights into what he represented or the tenets on which he built Bitcoin. The project will only be the beginning of what I intend to build upon as a series of books.
Why am I crowd-sourcing this ?
I believe, Bitcoin is what it is, purely because of the community that surrounds it. To write a book behind closed doors on its evolution and initial roots would be the equivalent of running a concert in a closed room. By permitting others to be a part of the creative process and research, I am expanding or even better, compounding the collective intellectual capital that is available here. By no means am I looking to take individual credit for the book.
