Bastards of Bitcoin

A kingdom you've been avoiding — and it's not as complicated as they made it look.

Strange Fables, Real Headlines — of Bitcoin and the coins it disowned.

True stories of crypto, told as twelve fables — each one ending in the real news headline that proves it happened.

Bastards of Bitcoin is a guided tour of the secret kingdom this new money built — told as twelve sharp, funny, humane fables of the saints and swindlers, visionaries and bandits who tried to capture it. You won't get a lecture. You'll get the truth, with the receipts attached. Volume One of a trilogy.

"A bastard, for our purposes, is any coin Bitcoin's own faithful disowned."
