Virtue signalling much?

This is a cheap PR stunt. Looks like some intern spent 20 mins uploading logos to a merch mockup site.

PRH is a joke.

p.s. That hoodie should be put in jail for crimes against fashion.

I'm looking for a curated list like a directory.

I've asked on X and nostr too. So far, I've found these useful links:

Congrats. Great initiative!

We will be at Bitcoin Film Festival in Warsaw (May) to talk more about the project and share news about how you can get involved our journey from books to the big screen.

You can buy from Amazon (lower shipping cost, but you have to pay in filthy fiat)

Order via 21futures.com/shop Use Will's code for a 10% discount. You can pay via btc.

Audiobooks are on the agenda. Book 1 is in production now!

Short fiction allows us to present a lot of interesting what-ifs and how-to-fight-backs.

I'm happy bitcoiners and the freedom space is embracing storytelling and fiction more.

What about some 21 Futures animations next?

P.s.

21 Futures Role Call. Any other contributors here on SN?

@OmniFinn @Satillionaire21 @eduardopro - any I'm missing?

I see both sides of this. Firstly, I agree that we have enough books ABOUT bitcoin.

Most authors in the space simply want to reframe 'what is bitcoin' or 'why bitcoin'? for a normie audience. They think they can succeed where dozens of other books have failed.

I don't agree with the AVB post about poor editing. The topic is technical and niche - so it's not a surprise that there are few editors of the quality of Big 5 publishers. The author misunderstands how publishing works.

Most of the second-rate bitcoin books are due to self-pub and not paying for top quality editing.

I think there will be a shift towards Bitcoin adjacent topics (bitcoin+ if you will). We need more books about how increased adoption changes other aspects of society and life. Plus we need more fiction.

Until recently, all of the bitcoin and crypto-themed fiction was self-published and quite low quality.

It was authors trying to cash in on the mystery of Satoshi or those who wanted to expose 'crazy heists' and altcoin wars.

I saw fiction as a way to reach out to those who are not INTJ or INTP on the Myers Briggs scale. Most visionaries and early adopters in bitcoin come from a narrow subset or the spectrum and are technically minded.

Fiction lovers come in all shapes and sizes, but I thought Tales from the Timechain would engage both bitcoiners and nocoiners.

The readers I meet all seem to have different reasons to read it and different favourites.

It goes to show that having a variety of stories and approaches is helpful to reach a wider audience.

Normally, technology should not tale centre stage. We care about characters facing conflict.

For 21 Futures, the mission is to spread freedom ideology. Bitcoin fits into that, but the stories we publish must still be entertaining and emotive. THAT’S how we make people care. The worst submissions we get are just diatribes or manifestos about why bitcoin is good.

Oh, and Satoshi origin stories (eyeroll). I've read about 21,000,000 of them, and they are boring.

The are lots of interesting details about bitcoin, but those are good bases for stories.

A good starting point is a what-if.

What if you could mine bitcoin off planet using cheap energy? What if CBDCs were omnipresent? What if nation-states became obsolete?

The smartest person I've ever met.

... yes, but you can also use FUTURESEEKER if you are not a dog person.

Getting more readers and writers on board.

We are looking to publish a few books in the next 2 years, including another anthology 2026.

We have audiobooks planned, and hope to figure out funding for a video series. That would be HUGE.

Probably @realBitcoinDog.
