Sorry for the repost but I'm still learning how to use muliple Nostr-apps correctly, so one more try hoping the link and the tags are correct this time:

Here is the free PDF of my bitcoin novel „Walking Banks“ for everyone to download (hosted on nostr.build):
https://d.nostr.build/UlE0X93faO1XxD9l.pdf
It is a murder mystery thriller with Bitcoin as a key plot element without being the focus of the story itself. Please feel free to share it with fellow Nostriches if you like.
I wrote this book for two reasons:
a) To provide a couple of hours of enjoyment. „Walking Banks“ does not aim to be high literature, but rather an entertaining read.
b) To contribute in my own small way to the growth of the Bitcoin community and network. Bitcoin has become well integrated into the lives of those interested in finance and freedom, but discussions about it often remain confined to those bubbles, reaching only a select niche. I believe the next important step for Bitcoin is to become a common topic in everyday pop culture - whether in art, music, films, books, or other media. This book is thus my attempt to "orange pill" a broader audience by weaving Bitcoin into a fictional story. My hope is that it sparks curiosity about it in the reader in a natural way, without being too forceful or preachy, for readers who might not usually consider these topics but enjoy a good murder mystery.
I believe Bitcoin and Nostr are joined at the hip, as both stand for freedom, sovereignty, and independence in an increasingly controlled and surveilled world. Everything that helps Nostr also helps Bitcoin, and vice versa, so I hope I can contribute a bit this way to Nostr's exclusivity and value content proposition.
Thanks to ODELL (npub1qny…95gx) whose advocacy for Nostr brought me here, gladstein (npub1trr…hdpu) whose work at the HRF is inspirational, Karnage (npub1r0r…q9ac) who told me about nostr.build (npub1nxy…avr7) so that I can host the file and to OT (npub1smr…xn8w), who first put the idea of sharing the book on Nostr into my head!
I hope you enjoy the read.
