Der Code der Freiheit - Satoshis Vermächtnis (German edition)

Der Code der Freiheit – Satoshis Vermächtnis is a techno-thriller by S.N. Carver: January 2009, Bitcoin's first block has not been written yet – and someone arrives from the future to make sure it never is.

About the book

Money is trust, and in autumn 2008 that trust broke. While the banks falter, a programmer using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto is about to launch a monetary system without banks, states or central control. The financial elite of the future knows how this ends – and sends its deadliest weapon back in time: the C-1000. Satoshi's only hope are Lisa, a protector from that same future, and the disillusioned LAPD detective Miller. Their escape leads across the Pacific Northwest, and the trio has one goal: to survive long enough to create the Genesis Block.

The hunt, the escape and the factions from the future are fiction. The historical cornerstones are real: the launch on 3 January 2009, the mathematical incorruptibility of the code and the London Times headline about bank bailouts that is embedded in the very first block to this day.

About the author

S.N. Carver tells the Bitcoin story twice: as a thriller in this book, and as non-fiction in “#101 Mythen über Bitcoin und Satoshi Nakamoto”, which takes apart the most persistent misconceptions about Bitcoin.
