2
1 Stories of Bitcoin, Blockchain and Cryptocurrency tells the story, origin, history, culture, legends, and anecdotes of the entire cryptocurrency industry.
The 492-page book's 21 chapters examine different facets of the blockchain phenomenon. Elias Ahonen's narrative work combines elements of metaphoric story, textbook, and memoir to preserve the history of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and everything surrounding them.
This includes explanations about the development of crypto mining and the ICO bubble, as well as Bitcoin's ideological origins, its early use in dark web drug markets, and billion-dollar digital heists.
100% roller-coaster ride, Blockland succeeds amazingly in both mythologizing and explaining the current state of the cryptocurrency industry... While all of the underlying stories are true, the use of metaphor and allegory really does bring home what a magical and unlikely path cryptocurrency has taken to get here. - Cointelegraph.com, 2020
The 6x9 hardcover versions are now available on Amazon, select bookstores, and directly from the author at www.cryptonumist.com for $59. The cover artwork Bitcoin Angel is by acclaimed crypto artist Trevor Jones and symbolizes how many Bitcoin enthusiasts see the digital currency as a sort of saviour. Blockland was published on January 3rd.
Cryptocurrency is a divisive concept with philosophical, generational, political, and cultural flashpoints which I have attempted to condense and reconcile into a collective history that gives a well-rounded picture of Bitcoin's first decade. - Elias Ahonen, Author
