Two books are currently being written:

Reddcoin - History of the First Year
DigiByte - History of the First Year

I was surprsed to see this, assumed cryptobook was a new coin.  This is impressive, how did you decide on which coins to reference?

I chose the above cryptocurrencies for many reasons.  Some are:

• They all featured in the first book I wrote and published back in December 2014, so I have a sufficient knowledge of their respective histories.
  
• I know a lot can be written about these.
• They have all been active for over one year
• Through personal contacts, I know I will get help from the respective communities when required.

Is your favourite cryptocurrency featured?

Cool, where can I find your first book ?  My favourite coin is of course the big daddy Bitcoin, alt wise I have picked up a few of the above but have not got a favourite alt right now although I am quite keen on Sapience (xai).

I would like to write a book on Bitcoin, but I know other authors have already done so.

Chapters January 2014 to July 2014 (48 pages) of the Reddcoin book complete.

Reddcoin book progress: Jan-Aug 2014 pages complete :) (54 pages)

Progress report: months September and October are nearly finished.  September focuses on Social X and October on new Reddcoin services.

These are quite ambitious projects you have here, to write 9 books like this.

Can you tell me, how much money it costs to make your own book like this, and how do you get a book to be on a shelf at a store like Chapters?

I am familiar with the history of at least one of the coins you mentioned, it will be interesting to read your books :)

I am a very ambitious person :P

I will do my best to tell the story of each cryptocurrency in an unbiased way. 

There are many different points of view, and which one is 'right' ?

For books, one might want to know some stuff about the author, in an attempt to gain awareness of the authors perspective or states of mind, or motives.

Reddcoin - History of the First Year Progress:

• Chapters on the months January 2014 to November 2014 are complete.
• It should be published by the end of June/early July.

awsome. finally somebody does this. if you need help with CANN coin PM me for exclusive info. i was in a pvt group wich influenced the coin back at 15k sat

"Reddcoin - History of the First Year" has just been published.  It is number two of the series.  

From now to the end of July I will be resting/going on holiday.  After this, I will resume writing the book on DigiByte (expected to be complete by late August/early September). 

Got my own copy today of Reddcoin - History of the first year.  Looks brilliant  ;D

Please write a review on this thread if you have read either the Peercoin or Reddcoin book.
