Experts Make Crypto Predictions for 2022
Welcome to the mid-week edition of Cryptocracy. I’ve been very busy lately doing two things:
Promoting my book I Am Not the King, primarily through podcast appearances
And writing a new book on the history of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap (more on this later)
Before I get into the news for this week, one short announcement: As you know, I normally publish Cryptocracy on Saturday morning, however, there will no publication on Saturday (Christmas Day). I am planning, at this time, to publish on New Year’s Day.

Join My Crypto Launch Team
You already know about my forthcoming book Cryptosocial: How Cryptocurrencies Are Changing Social Media. The book is at my publisher’s and will be released in March 2022. Meanwhile, I’m neck deep in producing another book on crypto, which I plan to publish mid-January as a precursor. The topic: The history of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap. Which coins topped the charts and when, and where are they now?
I’ve not come up with the official title yet, but I am beginning to assemble my launch team. What is a launch team, you ask?
I was recently asked that question by Kenny MacKay in his Author Your Dream podcast. You can listen to my explanation and description of a book launch team right here.
As I explain in the podcast, I’d like to launch my next book with 100 members on my launch team. If you’d be interested in helping me spread the word about my new book and helping it gain some early momentum, visit my author website, scroll to the bottom, and download my free list of cryptosocial platforms and protocols. I’ll make sure you get all the details very soon.
