With summer nearing its end and autumn, a boom time for booksellers across the world, approaching, Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin is joining the race for this year’s crypto-related bestseller with the forthcoming release of Proof of Stake, a compilation of his writings from the past 10 years.
The title is to be released as both a physical and digital book on 27 September, Buterin tweeted. His entire share of the proceeds from the book is to support open-source public goods through Gitcoin Grants, the author said.
Interested readers can get a signed digital copy of Proof of Stake and a related NFT here.
“Donate any amount of ETH above to receive an NFT and digitally signed book from Vitalik. You’ll mint a non-transferable NFT and, when the book is available, you’ll gain access to your signed digital copy,” according to the site.
For pledges made on the book’s official site, 90% of the funds will be allocated to the Gitcoin Grants matching pool, and 10% to the title’s publisher, Seven Stories Press, for supporting public goods in independent publishing.
To ensure its wide distribution, readers will also be able to buy the book from a wide range of retailers such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart.
