BITCOIN: THE CODE OF RESISTANCE

Coming Soon: The Resistance Code – A Manifesto for the Bitcoin Era
One book may not change the world. But some books come at the right time, like a spark in a climate saturated with electricity. The Code of Resistance is one of them. For several months, silently, a project has been taking shape behind the scenes at The 100 Blocks. A work written with patience, rage, and method. Not yet another technical manual, nor a collection for Sunday traders. But a manifesto. A story. A dive into the ideological, technical, and human roots of a movement that goes beyond technology. Because Bitcoin is not an application. It is a line of defense. And this book maps it. It is not just for cryptocurrency enthusiasts, but for anyone who senses that something is wrong in this digitized, centralized, hyperconnected world. Behind the screens, behind the slogans, there is a deeper reality. Surveillance, control, censorship, planned inflation, organized obsolescence, structural dependence. And in response, for forty years, figures have risen up. Anonymous figures. Geniuses. Activists. Builders. Cypherpunks.
A storybook, a mirror book
This book gives voice to these figures. It tells their stories, connects them, embodies them. David Chaum, the visionary. Hal Finney, the knight of the first bloc. Phil Zimmermann, Nick Szabo, Julian Assange, Andreas Antonopoulos, Adam Back, Zooko Wilcox, Edward Snowden, Wei Dai, Ross Ulbricht… and of course, the shadow of all the others: Satoshi Nakamoto, starting point and vanishing point. Each chapter is a narrative portrait, but also a key to understanding. It's not a pantheon, it's a puzzle. The reader traces the thread of history, understands where Bitcoin comes from, what it responds to, and what it really offers. The Code of Resistance doesn't seek to seduce. It offers a journey, a reading, a memory. It connects cryptography, politics, privacy, civil disobedience, economics, and the growing fear of a world locked down by digital technology. It's a story to understand, not to obey.
Why now?
Because 2025 marks a turning point. Bitcoin has reached several milestones. The network is more robust than ever. Solo mining is making a comeback. Institutions are taking notice. Regulations are intensifying. But at its core, it's not a technical issue. It's a matter of conscience. Too many people use tools without grasping their scope. Too many narratives have been simplified, corrupted, or stripped of substance. A book was needed to set the record straight. Not just another practical guide, but a philosophical and historical compass. Accessible, yet demanding. Engaged, yet precise. Profoundly human.
Free, artisanal, sovereign edition
The book will be published by 100 Blocks Editions, without any connection to the traditional circuit. No filters. No dependencies. No editorial validation, no reading committee, no guidelines to follow. Everything is done in-house, from the text to the layout, from the cover to the printing, with the sole criterion being the intellectual and aesthetic coherence of the project. It will be available in paperback on Amazon KDP, in digital format on Kindle, and for direct sale via the official website www.the100blocks.com . Other formats may follow: audio version, annotated edition, editorial NFT, augmented reading. But one thing is certain: this book depends on no one. And it's ready.
An imminent release. A discreet call.
This isn't a flashy announcement. There will be no advertising. No artificial pre-sales. No orchestrated launch. Simply a message: the book is coming. And those who care will recognize it. It's not about convincing everyone. It's about offering a tool to those seeking understanding. A book for demanding readers. For the lucidly curious. For gentle maximalists. For calm resisters. The release is scheduled for June 2025, in the coming days or weeks. Until then, you can talk about it. Share this message. Follow the announcements. And prepare yourself to read a book that may not change the world. But it might well change the way you look at it.
A symbolic gesture on the blockchain
To mark this imminent release, and in the very spirit of this radically free project, a digital version of the book cover has been minted as an NFT on the Manifold platform. This collector's NFT, entitled BLOCK#1 – THE COVER , is available in a limited edition of 100 copies, free of charge, in free circulation. This is not a marketing product, but a coherent gesture: to engrave on the blockchain the first public appearance of the book The Code of Resistance . A symbol, an imprint, a way of anchoring this manifesto in the very universe it defends. This NFT can be claimed, traded, collected, or simply kept as an immutable trace of the work before its official publication.
