Heading to NYC this week to lecture at the NYU Advanced Publishing Institute – and we have a lot of other very high profile meetings with Publishers. As much as I hated to cut it we need to meet publishers and customers where they are at. This is my physical manifestation of Web3…
Got to spend some great time with

at the

HQ and brainstorm about some amazing future announcements. Incredible things are on the horizon!
1) Did you know, every major publisher sells public domain titles... Lets look at the "Big 5" publishers who control the majority of the entire book market:
Sorry for the delay in setting this XSpace up. We will do it tomorrow (Wednesday). Been busy since BookCon. Special thanks to

for the amazing hospitality the last few days.
In the last hour,
@book_io
did 1/ an eBook mint, 2/ two separate snap-shots, and 3/ released the Book stake pool reward portal. Incredible team.. I love you guys!
It's shocking to me the amount of conversations I have where people say they don't know what blockchain is. Yesterday someone asked me "When will Web3 be here?" – like its an upgrade they need to do on their device. Have to remind myself that we live in the future and continue…

1/5 Our last eBook startup that we sold to private equity had ~6M readers, but we basically had an identical product to

On January 29th all Amazon Prime users will see ads on all video content unless they pay $3/month.
I wonder how much more creators will earn from selling ads and charging extra to not see ads… let me guess, $0.
Video ownership is the future for creators and consumers.…

My crypto journey:
1/ This sounds like a scam.
2/ Wait, this isn’t a scam at all it the future.
3/ Ouch, like half this stuff is a scam.
4/ Yikes, most of this is a scam.
But the part that isn’t a scam - it’s really the future of the internet.

Dial-up connections ran at 56kbps. Today, 1Gbps+ speeds are nearly 18,000 times faster than those early connections. New technology isn't always fast or perfect. Good thing we fight through the slow times and new innovations. Thanks for the patience as we debut new ADA tech.
The new book covers for the

Talking to the
@book_io
team on tomorrow's morning livestream and gonna give away a Gutenberg Bible NFT!!!! (floor price 1269 ADA!)
Make sure to follow to see the giveaway details!
p.s. how the hell are less than 1% listed?
2 months ago I released my book on Amazon.
In 2 months I sold 50 copies for a net of $180.
Now I put my book on Cardano today with the help of
@book_io
and...
257 copies sold in the first 10 minutes.
+ a WAYY higher % split in royalties, and 2.5% on all secondary sales.
Do you want to know how we prepare for mints at
@book_io
, what the next utility for $BOOK token is, and the secret to my beard care routine?
Come join and ask me anything - I’ll be live on r/Cardano in about 15 minutes.
Behind the scenes

just what we need, contracts created by software designed by engineers who don't really know law. Or new ways to reduce the value of a book to readers. Solutions for things that aren't problems.
Do NOT forget that we have a Gutenberg Snapshot today!
📢📢DELIST YOUR GUTES!**
Snapshot Time: 5 PM Eastern, 21:00 UTC

2/5 Thankfully at
@book_io
we invented DEAs, which is a radical technical advancement for the publishing industry because readers can actually own their eBooks/Audiobooks for the first time ever and not just license them.
Blockchain enables this - but blockchain is not the goal, it’s merely the infrastructure. And projects like our will be the path to get consumers to understand the benefits of Web3, and the value of cryptocurrency at scale.
Excited to be at
@RareEvo
with the
@book_io
team. Stop by and say “hi”. Also speaking later about the future of censorship resistance on the main stage… will post a link to the live stream
Very excited about these – even though they are potatoes – because a small and maybe overlooked detail is that we now have the ability to dynamically reverse text overlays on covers which will allow us to do some more cool stuff. Meaning, these are the very first books covers…
So thankful to be working with the very best engineering team in all of crypto
