At the moment, Crypto Books is currently working on the title "Anoncoin - History of the First Year". Once this book has been published (before this Christmas), work will resume on a book about Diamond. Some of you may know that progress was made this summer to research and collate as much historical information about Diamond as possible. We never leave a book unfinished.
Due to the slim history of the first year, the book for Diamond will cover a historical narrative of its humble beginnings in July 2013 to a certain day in 2017 (to be determined). It will be the first extended history book of the "Alt-ernative" Book Series. What follows is the rough timeline of events which were researched this summer:
