Austin Notaris is a high school senior with an avid curiosity about economics, history, and technology. Drawn deeply into the worlds of Bitcoin, Ethereum, blockchains, and cryptocurrencies, he has written four books: a non-fiction title and a three-part fictional series, "The Future of Finance" Trilogy. His non-fiction work, "The Bitcoin Phenomenon," delves into the history of Bitcoin, chronicling its creation by Satoshi Nakamoto, the catalysts behind its emergence, and its pivotal moments. It provides a detailed technical analysis of Bitcoin, discussing aspects like mining, storage, trading, and its blockchain software. It does not shy away from addressing criticisms of Bitcoin, as well as common myths and concerns such as its environmental impact and its perceived role as a speculative asset. It goes on to discuss the Ethereum blockchain, Blockchains 3.0, and the rise and fall of Decentralized Finance (DeFi). His fictional "Future of Finance" Trilogy depicts a world teetering at the crossroads of technological and financial revolution: - "Decentralized Revolution" This kickoff to the trilogy shadows five high school students as they challenge conventional financial norms, igniting a revolution to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and blockchain technology. - "Edge of Collapse: Years 2022-2023" Delving deeper, this installment highlights Bitcoin and blockchain technology as safeguards during financial turbulence, offering a fresh take on the evolution of resilient financial systems. - "The Crypto Revolution: From Silicon Valley to Capitol Hill" Concluding the trilogy, this book chronicles the team's evolution from tech innovators to influential political voices, united by their dedication to social justice, entrepreneurship, and the limitless potential of Bitcoin and blockchains. Austin's writings spotlight the innovative solutions that emerging financial technologies present, especially when conventional systems fail. His writings aim to demystify Bitcoin and Ethereum, accentuating the groundbreaking potential of blockchain technology to reshape global financial systems, akin to the advent of the internet.
