I have completed chapters covering 2008-2016 (total 128 pages). Currently checking and editing those pages before i upload it here very soon. This could probably become the best resource e-book about the history of Bitcoin, but after you finish your work you should create a thread on an appropriate section of this forum, possibly for beginners, and help, many of us here even if they part of this forum do not know the full history of Bitcoin, I could myself as one, I hope your coming announcement about your e-book will be pinned so many can discover this.

I have completed chapters covering 2008-2016 (total 128 pages). Currently checking and editing those pages before i upload it here very soon. Tyke, Keep pushing, this book is pure genius and represents some of the most valuable information I have seen on the origins of bitcoin. Some of the early information is pure gold. The bit about "netcoin.org" is beyond interesting. Just imagine if Satoshi choose netcoin as the name of his network instead. This is a manuscript that must be written and distributed accordingly.

THE BITCOIN HISTORY BOOK 2008-2024For one year, I've been researching and writing about the full 2008-2024 Bitcoin history. I plan to self-publish a 300 A4 page book (colour interior) on Amazon by September 2024. It will cover all major Bitcoin milestones from inception of the blockchain to the end of June 2024. I've spent countless hours collating and presenting relevant history by writing 16 page yearly chapters. Below is a link showing a preview of what has already been put together: (history chapters begin on page 44)Please support: $BTC (CONTACT ME FOR BTC ADDRESS)Besides the above, a preliminary front cover for the book as been designed: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2F7Vfs9xP%2F3-DFront-Cover19092023-3.jpg&t=665&c=f8ndL-mXHLiigQ) Some members of Bitcointalk may remember my previous posts here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5469588.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5441233.0
If you like (or impressed by) the progress made so far, please comment below by leaving constructive feedback. I've been part of the Bitcoin/crypto community for over 10 years. Distributed ledger technology has never left my radar since I discovered Bitcoin back in March 2013. The Bitcoin History Book 2008-2024 will be my contribution to legacy, as well as newbie, members of the community. Please contact me if you would like to support the book via donations, sponsorships or otherwise. I will continue to strive towards completing the book by September 2024. Thank you for reading (don't forget to click on the Google Drive link in order to read the current book interior). It is a draft at the moment!

Allow me to ask, why did you set the date 2008-2024 and not 2023?
Are you thinking about creating the book in digital format only, or also in paper format?

I will say congratulations on your project. When I see things of this nature that promotes the community I usually have his joy in me that people are really not just here for some pay or something else but to make remarkable things, just as I wish to do some day.
I haven't had enough time to read through your research compilation but will surely do, and I will also make a review of it if possible to help you find faults that needs to be fixed before publication.
A new development of this nature surely needs to be more appreciated but I believe it will come when your finally done with it. Once again congratulations Tyke.
Thank you for pointing out that I am contributing greatly to Bitcoin. It would be encouraging to see more support in terms of donations, because it is taking countless hours, resources and energy to drive the book towards the finish line. If anyone in the community can help, please donate by first messaging me here. Your name will be included in the book. On a personal note, there are times when I feel lethargic and fed up. Despite that, I keep finding the motivation to persist. Please support me if you can as I do my best to create something great. I appreciate all praise from the Bitcoin community.

Asking the community for support is a good thing, as you are making an excellent compilation. But it would also be good if you responded to the comments that the community makes about your work. Almost all of his posts are asking for donations, and saying that his work is hard - which is true. But, if you want to involve the community, give feedback on the community's observations.

The book covers Bitcoin history from 18th August 2008 to 30th June 2024. It will be checked during the summer ready for self-publication in September 2024. The book will be available digitally, and in paperback/hardcover formats. One of the reasons I do not reply to all questions or comments is I am mostly pressed for time. I do read all replies ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I hope community members donate towards my efforts. It will help enormously towards completing the book in September 2024. I cannot quantify how many hours it will take until then, but I am committed to spend as much of my free time as possible. Thank you in advance.

I don't know how much you covered crime, but if you have a chapter on corruption, I can provide quite of bit of evidence in Theymos and OG's own posts. I could possibly get you $ help with some scam charities. (Don't get excited OG, they support scam victims ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) )

For of all, thank you to all those who have commented on this thread including useful feedback. It is motivating and helps me to assess progress. I have nearly completed the first draft of 8 chapters covering 2008-2016 (see draft preview, some pages removed) immediately below. The Bitcoin yearly history chapters begin on page 44 after introductory and other BTC related pages. To be honest, I am slightly baffled about the lack of generosity from the community. Countless time and energy has been put into it so far, and I am determined to write draft pages for 2017-end June 2024 next year. I'm far from a greedy person (live in a small terrace house with terrible heating and an abomination of a garden) who continuously loves to learn and work hard. Moreover, I turn down overtime at work in favour of writing this book. If you can, please donate: $BTC bc1qktyzg2atx5paka2x64pxdwg54u7m2yn3cu2qxy$LTC ltc1qz8jqkhy264q3mdjkjzsve7er25qdnmmvxt96lr$ETH 0x125288bAf499e26259f8E2aC6FC5fE1491aBa9c2$DOGE DRj7PWEz5zxHc5ptkTBapKjCrxQU75CB6q$XRP r9LbXGJ9HCdwvAhKWJJLihSd8612xHybv7With sufficient help, I know the book will be completed by September 2024. Thank you in advance for your support and feedback. Below are thumbnail screenshots of the first 8 yearly BTC history chapters: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FyRpkRVZ%2FBitcoin-History-Book04122023-Chapters12.jpg&t=665&c=uFy3yk1gbiDxSw) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2F9hFDBqq%2FBitcoin-History-Book04122023-Chapters34.jpg&t=665&c=KnHc7_asp8LqRg) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FbRY1HtN%2FBitcoin-History-Book04122023-Chapters56.jpg&t=665&c=sRlhDrgwGZUS5w) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FYygpBLq%2FBitcoin-History-Book04122023-Chapters78.jpg&t=665&c=8U1oYq4xBUtx4Q)

I don't know why, but I have always liked when the books I read begin with an extra large letter for the first word in a new section. For instance, your first section titled Registration of the bitcoin.org Domain Name begins with From late 2007 to 2009... Instead of that, I would prefer From late 2007 to 2009... I obviously don't expect you to make that change. Just providing some feedback on what I find more visually appealing.

Nah I'll pass on that. I don't find it appealing, and it will effect some of the page layouts (text boxes will expand with lower page text boxes without adequate space). I treat every page as a work of art.

I doubt your book will be of interest to many people. People outside this forum see this as a scammer's paradise, and if you are not covering any scams, they probably won't be interested. As for community members, only a few have made it worth their while here. The community mantra is HODL. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

Did you ask LoyceV or Ninja for copies of forum posts? You could run it through AWS ML (free) to produce all kinds of meta data. Again, this will broaden the appeal.
