Title: Bitcoinomics - The First Bitcoin Textbook...
Post by: SilverVigilante on April 30, 2013, 09:21:36 PM
Hey everyone, Just wanted to give you a heads up that on May 15 i am going to publish my 100 page book on Bitcoin with Gold Silver Bitcoin. But, first, in the spirit of open source, I wanted to know what everyone else thought should be added. The Intro/Conclusion are pretty much just comments on this point in BTC - random thoughts. The aim is at beginner's, but the story obviously gets more and more complex as it goes on. What's needed? Here is the table of contents:

I. Introduction II. Who Is Bitcoin? III. What Is Bitcoin? IV. Historical Precedents V. Bitcoin Fundamentals VI. The Market VII. Getting Started With Bitcoin VIII. Using Bitcoin In Business IX. Responsibility & Bitcoin X. Bitcoin Uses XI. The Future of Money & Property XII. Bitcoin Mining XIII. Hacking Bitcoin XIV. Bitcoin Fork XV. Varying Levels Of Legality XVI. Bitcoin Trading Price XVII. A Menu of Cryptograhic Currencies XVIII. Bitcoin Business Ideas Conclusion


Let me know if you have any input. Im also thinking of adding a free guide to it on "How To Avoid Bitcoin Scams" like those "How To Avoid Gold Scams"...is that needed?

You really have "the spirit of open source" completely wrong sir

Would you like to collaborate with the Bitcoin Education Project? I think we have a lot in common:

There are a number of Books already on the market.  Bitcoin Step by Step on Kindle is just one of many.

How many java programming books are there? How many chess books are there? The more the merrier and I'd be happy to help any author. May I ask the license of your IP?
