The U.S. hard copy edition was released 2023-12-12, which is now over 12
months in the past, so I'm exercising my right.
The third edition of Mastering Bitcoin, written by David Harding for O'Reilly Media was published in December 2023. It is now also available under a CC-BY-NC-ND license, here.
The commit ab5ae32bae is the last commit
for the second edition, so all changes since then are dropped except for
several commits for the third edition authored by Andreas Antonopoulos.
No attempt is made to remove CC-BY-SA or other licensed content present
in the already-published first or second editions.
This revert may itself be reverted for versions of the book published
under CC-BY-SA.
