As one of the first pages states, this book is dedicated to "the memory of Hal Finney; May 4, 1956 - Aug 28, 2014.".
Although it seems that the authors of this graphic novel had a lot of passion for Bitcoin and a talent for storytelling with dynamic drawings, they are no longer active in the space, having ceased further works in similar genres. Pity...
We’re adding this piece to the website mostly because it’s probably one of the first educational materials about Bitcoin in the form of a comic book.

Bitcoin is making giant strides throughout the world. Satoshi Nakamoto, its creator, continues as an enigmatic and cryptographic figure. Nonetheless, rumors surrounding his potential wealth have not gone unnoticed by the mafia. He has also popped ups or the radar of the secret services. In fact, NSA agents have been searching for him for some time now. The opportunities that this crypto-currency has opened up within the financial markets have turned Nakamoto into a hero admired in more and more places near and far. His fans would go to great lengths to protect and defend him. For many, simply managing monetary transactions and issuing bitcoins without the involvement of intermediaries as well as carrying out transactions collectively online are factors which promote values for a freer world: In hope for a better world.
