A fundraiser to realize “The Bitcoin Standard” in the German language

Hey everyone! We are Stefan & Fabio - two Bitcoin enthusiasts from Germany. Since we wanted to help Bitcoin spread in the German speaking region (Germany, Switzerland & Austria), we bought the rights to translate and publish one of the most popular books about Bitcoin in German:

The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous

We are now searching for sponsors (companies) and donors helping us to fund the translation and get the German version out there as soon as possible! We thought tallyco.in is the perfect platform to contact the Bitcoin community and ask for support. To be able to accelerate and finance the translation, lectorate and someone who does graphics and editing on a professional level, we need a minimum of 13.200€ which matches approximately 15.000 USD.

To give everyone donating an incentive to support our project we came up with the following perks:

  • $ 5 Receive a “Thank You!” sticker when we’re publishing the book even when not reaching the goal.
  • $ 10 Take part in a raffle to get 1 of 10 copies of the final book signed by Saifedean Ammous himself! You can participate multiple times.
  • $ 25 make sure you get your copy from the first batch! And get in touch with us via the Perk instructions!
  • $ 250 (15x times) Make sure you get a copy of the final book signed by Saifedean Ammous himself! First come, first serve.
  • $ 3000 (only 2x times left, other 2 slots are sold) Make sure your company logo will be printed on an “Acknowledgements” page in the book! (Please contact us in advance: info@aprycot.de, we keep the right to choose the logo sponsors)

We clarified the additional page and the signed copies with the author and publisher. Please keep in mind, although we plan on releasing the book in 2019, it might take a longer time until we have raised enough to be able to publish the book. So don’t have a high time preference. :) But the faster we completed the funding, the faster we can get it done.

Of course you can also donate smaller amounts or something in between, we are thankful for every contribution. If you are taking part in the Perks you will get to see further details. If you donated the amount directly, you can send an Email with your transaction ID (Subject: Tallycoin) telling us which perk you qualified for (first Email per transaction counts). In any case, contact us here: info@aprycot.de

If you want to stay up to date you can subscribe to our German newsletter on www.aprycot.de or follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/fabthefoxx! We are thankful for any kind of support! Please keep in mind that your support is a donation making the book open source unfortunately was not possible because of legal issues. We plan on selling the book as a paperback and ebook as soon as everything is set.
