Remembering Satoshi's words..."Kicking the Hornet's Nest" Twelve years in, it's worth paying attention to the beginnings. I'm writing to three groups of people here: Long time Bitcoiners - You should have read some of Satoshi Nakamoto's words by now. If not, you need to get your homework done. Medium time Bitcoiners - You may have heard of the whitepaper, perhaps glanced at it. It's time to look at the beginnings. New Bitcoiners - Welcome. We love you. I edited a book called "Kicking the Hornet's Nest: The Complete Writings, Emails, and Forum Posts of Satoshi Nakamoto, the Founder of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency". Recently, it got a bit of traction when it was featured on Bitcoin.com in a book review. Take a look. https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoins-inception-a-340-page-book-compiles-all-of-satoshis-writings-in-chronological-order/ The upshot is that... All of Satoshi's public words are recorded, all of them, in chronological order. I found it fascinating to go through what he wrote, his thoughts and interactions, in the order that he went through them. I write "he", by the way, and explain why in the book's introduction. I added very little commentary. "Kicking" was to be Satoshi's words, not mine. There is a bit of commentary in the beginning, the rest is all Satoshi. "Kicking" is free too. There are several downloadable versions at https://nefties.com/kicking like pdf. There's also video and NFT versions set to awesome polka music! Because, why not?! For the hard core Bitcoiners, a printed paperback version is also available. How cool would that look on the bookshelf behind you during your next video conference? :) https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/mill-hill-books/kicking-the-hornets-nest-the-complete-writings-emails-and-forum-posts-of-satoshi-nakamoto-the-founder-of-bitcoin-and-cryptocurrency/paperback/product-16ygk4nn.html
