Money It’s that thing you don’t have enough of, that Elon Musk has too much of, and that looks suspiciously like a piece of cotton paper that we all just agreed to not treat like a napkin. My book Birth of Bitcoin is now available to preorder. Buy it with Bitcoin. No paper money!

If I end up writing the best bitcoin book of all time, it will have only been possible because I was truly obsessed with the story of Satoshi Nakamoto - the introverted nerd who single handedly dealt bankers their biggest blow since Napoleon.

I will sell the first 100 copies of my book only via bitcoin.

Was Satoshi's "rebellion" the real plan all along? Was he not a rebel, but a pawn in a much, much larger and more terrifying game?

Birth of Bitcoin is not just “yet another bitcoin book.” I have constructed a lens. A lens that, once you look through it, changes the way you see the world. It organizes history, politics, and technology into a single, breathtaking, and terrifying picture. Birth of Bitcoin doesn’t just entertain you. It rewires your brain.

In my book you won’t find Satoshi Nakamoto with a Rubik’s cube in hand. I hate that trope where writers show a character with a Rubik’s cube to show that he is intelligent. That’s lazy and lame writing. That’s a dumb man’s idea of what an intelligent man looks like. In my book you see how a real intelligent man thinks and solves difficult problems. His entire journey is about learning to act in the face of overwhelming odds. Satoshi doesn't create Bitcoin in a single flash of brilliance; he does it piece by agonizing piece, fueled by one failure, one loss, one small success at a time.

I find “strong independent girl boss babes” to be utterly repulsive. In my book Satoshi’s girlfriend is a soft, cute, girly girl with teen angst.

A simple finance book would be “nerdy guy invents digital money.” Boring. A simple occult thriller would be “ancient evil threatens world.” Generic. That’s why I’m writing a book where Satoshi Nakamoto invents Bitcoin and then fights cosmic evil.
