About this title

Synopsis

In this autobiography written in 2049, David Wenkart tells how his invention of the ccoin blockchain came about. As readers are probably aware, the ccoin blockchain has revolutionized the world in recent years: nation states have lost power, while the structure of society and people’s lives have radically changed. Wenkart, the son of two Holocaust survivors who grew up in the Vienna of the 1980s, describes his life history in this memoir. His momentous invention of ccoin, at the time a new loan-based cryptocurrency, occurred in 2017. The reader will finally learn the true story behind the infamous Block55 and gain insight into what is likely the greatest social revolution of our century.

About the Author

Michael Marcovici (born 1969 in Vienna) is an Austrian artist and entrepreneur. His works grapple with economics, technology, Internet domains, sociology, and politics. Marcovici engaged in his first entrepreneurial activities while still in school, leading his parents to declare him an adult for legal reasons. Before his first major economic success, he worked chiefly as a magazine publisher. He is also the founder of Austria Börsenbrief [Austria Market Letter] and Street Fashion magazine. From 1999 to 2005, he was an eBay PowerSeller, with the highest revenues of any vendor worldwide in 2004 and 2005. Since 2006 he has been active in Internet domain reselling, and from 2010 to the present day he has directed an investment fund focused on Internet domains and cryptocurrencies. Michael has also been pursuing an artistic career since 1998. This is his first novel.
