Overview2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels Chronicles Curious to understand the world of Bitcoin? This story is your gateway. Already passionate about it? Step inside and experience its future. Welcome to the year 2140, where humanity has reorganized around Bitcoin, decentralization, and a new vision of human flourishing. 2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels is a visionary speculative novel that imagines a future in which fiat currencies have collapsed and incorruptible money has reshaped civilization. In this richly layered narrative, divided societies converge into thriving Citadels-self-sustaining communities built on sound money, sovereign technology, and a renewed connection to nature. Blending speculative fiction, philosophical inquiry, and techno-political reflection, 2140 offers more than a glimpse of tomorrow, it presents a living blueprint for rethinking value, freedom, and collective organization. Through a series of interconnected storylines, readers embark on a global journey from the early days of Bitcoin adoption to the rise of the enigmatic Council of Satoshi, guardians of a decentralized and purpose-driven world. Ancient wisdom merges with modern innovation as Platonic dialogues and Socratic inquiry guide characters toward deeper understandings of autonomy, cooperation, and resilience. The novel also confronts fierce resistance: media manipulation, regulatory warfare, and digital conflict waged by the remnants of crumbling centralized powers desperate to maintain control. 2140 is a bold and intelligent exploration of how communities across the globe might evolve when guided by transparency, shared sovereignty, and radical trust in mathematical truth. It envisions a world where human creativity and technological integrity coexist, and where freedom is rebuilt on a foundation of cooperation rather than coercion. Drawing inspiration from real-world intentional communities, decentralized governance models, and the revolutionary potential of blockchain technology, 2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels reveals how the seeds of a new civilization may already be taking root.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationAbout the AuthorMichael McGilbourne's life mirrors the monetary evolution he chronicles in 2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels Chronicles. His journey from London's financial district to writing this book as a traveling digital nomad embodies the very transformation he envisions.Starting as an intern at a London stock broker, Michael progressed to become a financial advisor in the USA and later worked in foreign exchange risk insurance, where he witnessed firsthand the institutional machinery that maintains fiat monetary hegemony. His experience in traditional finance and risk assessment gave him unique insight into the systemic vulnerabilities that Bitcoin's mathematical certainty addresses.Leaving traditional finance behind, Michael established yoga studios and an off-grid retreat center in the French Alps, learning to create harmony between human needs and natural systems. Like the Rio Verde facility in his novel, this experience proved that technology and nature need not be adversaries.For the past several years, Michael has embraced Bitcoin's borderless promise, traveling the world as a digital nomad with his wife and three daughters. This family journey across continents embodies the geographic freedom that Bitcoin enables.2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels Chronicles was written entirely on the road, composed in cafés from Lisbon to Bali, mountain retreats from Munnar, India to the South African bush, and during flights between continents. His daughters, aged 10, 14, and 16, serve as his generational compass, naturally grasping concepts that older minds struggle to understand.Inspired by The Bitcoin Standard and countless encounters during his travels, from witnessing hyperinflation in Turkey to observing remittance flows in Southeast Asia, Michael bridges the gap between Bitcoin's technical community and the broader public seeking to understand what this technology means for humanity's future.He believes we are living through the opening chapters of the story he's written, and that the best way to understand the future is to participate in creating it.2140 - The Rise of Bitcoin Citadels: Genesis is the first book in a planned multi-volume series exploring Bitcoin's evolution through 2140 and beyond.
