I have just published a book that details in depth how to design and manufacture your own coins (or physical crypto wallet)!

I'm really excited to present this as the target market that inspired the book are largely based in these forums. I have tried to make it as straightforward as possible without being condescending and I really believe that the information contained will help anyone starting out (or maybe those already started) with the lengthy and sometimes isolated process of making their own awesome coins.
A little more detail: I have had many messages asking about how my coins were made and the techniques used. So in response I have written extensively on every part of my work process and standardised it into chapters that quickly bring all the relevant information and skills together and show how anyone can create fun and interesting coins themselves!

I hope that you enjoy the book (and making coins) as much as I enjoyed writing and using the techniques contained in the eBook!

Print copy now in stock, available for payment in bitcoin! 0.04948BTC

Print copy also available HERE from lulu.com Smiley

PDF available directly from me for 0.0301BTC or from Lulu.com HERE


You can purchase an eBook Kindle copy (US) from here or a UK copy here or any amazon website- just search 'coin making guide' or of course, my name on any amazon site (spelling below).

Comments and questions welcome (especially on the eBook page itself), I will try and get back as soon as possible. I have given copies to some trusted members of the forum and I'm sure they will chime in here about the book when they have had time to peruse the pages!
The book is also part of Kindle Unlimited- so if you have that it won't cost you anything Smiley

This seems really cool...
Does it cover generating private keys and coin assembly?
I've already assembled most my coins so it's a bit late for me now..

Hi AT101ET- thanks for the interest. It does not cover key generation itself, I felt that was outside the realm of creating a physical coin. What it does cover is information on security holograms which obviously can be an integral part of any physical wallet (and hiding the generated keys).

Very nice, is there any way I can purchase it and print a copy to read?

$5 is a deal but I would like to read paper and I don't have an amazon account or a kindle.  You can PM me if you aren't selling a PDF copy and we'll figure something out.  Smiley

Hi digicoinuser- I've been asked by another member for a print copy as well. I didn't expect there to be that much interest, but I will make an effort to get it listed at a print-on-demand at Lulu or something similar. I will update the thread when it's available!

This is a great idea well done for thinking of it Smiley. Perhaps you could do it as a pdf?

I would certainly be interested in buying a copy getting a free evaluation copy Cheesy.

There's also been quite a few requests for a pdf- the formatting from html to pdf is really ugly, so that will need sorting. I'll look into distribution too if I don't do it manually on the forum!

Please let me know if you are going to have a pdf published, I prefer that over reading it on the app, it gives me flexibility between all my devices. Thanks in advance.

Hi Cracked, thanks for the post. I've just about finished formatting the book for print so in theory I should have a pdf available to distribute too. I believe I can do this through Lulu, so I might be able to do this alongside my print edition!

I hope my previous post gives you some hope. I spent a few hours sorting out the layout for print/pdf.

Hey guys, it's looking more and more like I will be making the pdf available directly since there is more demand for this format- the converting isn't finished but it's going quicker than I expected- just need to double check the layout. So the pdf will probably be available at the same time as the print edition as they are essentially the same thing in terms of file.

Thanks for the interest guys! I will update the thread when I have more info!

I want to buy this book, but I'd like to pay you in BTC and receive a pdf. If that's possible, let me know. I just want to know how this works under the hood since there's quite a lot of hype for physical coins and stuff.

Alright, I'll be closely watching this topic Cheesy
P.S: I can help you setup an autobuy store using bitcoins.
