He does not. He copy pastes them together and it's something he has been doing like that from before Bitcoin. Look at this article about one the books he wrote (before Bitcoin) and also read the reviews on his book.

The book was called "The IT Regulatory and Standards Compliance Handbook"

Here is a quote from one of the reviews.

>I really had hopes for this one.... Very disappointed. First of all, the material is basically a mix of tools one can use (which is helpful) and overarching organizational rhetoric that is as misplaced as it is nonsensical. Secondly, the editing is SO BAD that it makes it impossible to read more than a paragraph. An example: "Permisions be inconsistently applied when the permissions are retained in moving a file is moved to a new directory[sic]" page 400. Absolutley save your money.

Does this sound familiar? That quote is from 2011, 3 years before he came to the Bitcoin scene.

another quote

>I purchased this book hoping, and judging by the title and page count, that it would be helpful in updating our IS department's policies and procedures. I wanted a reference that would help us include the relevant parts of SOX, HIPPA, PCI, COBIT, and the rest of the alphabet soup of regulations and standards into our processes.

>Unfortunately, this book is more a guide for beginner IT auditors. It took about 10 minutes for me to realize this, so the fault is mine for not examining the TOC and sample pages more thoroughly before I purchased it. I decided to gleam what I could from it, then pass it on to our Internal Audit department.

>As I read the chapters that seemed germane to my project, it became clear that the book was not very well written or edited. I am not a grammar snob; the writing is disjointed, and the grammatical and typographical errors are so frequent they are distracting. I do not recommend this book for beginner auditors because there are better publications available (see the ISACA bookstore online).

This is because CSW copy pastes his books together. No wonder he can write a paper a day unless his control or v or c button broke again.


There is even a review by Dale Liu on that amazon page, which is one of the guys that worked on that book ..... lol


This Dale Liu guy has worked on other books as well. Here is one such book.

Let's look at a review of this book that Dale Liu worked on:

>I'm not the type to go out of my way to give negative feedback, but I seriously need to warn you CCNA canditates about this book. Don't buy it, you're better off spending that 59.95 on different study guide. There are TONS of errors in this book. I'm not at all exaggerating, there are mistakes on just about every page - it's ridiculous! I've contatcted Syngress in an attempt to get my money back but haven't gotten a reply as of this writing.
I've read through numerous IT manuals and study guides in the last 9 years and never have I seen such slipshod material. It doesn't even look like anything was proof read for spelling or grammatical errors. I put my time in with this book too, so I'm not just basing this on a single page or chapter; I can honestly say that, having read through just over half of the book, I have probably seen at least 50 problems ranging from simple things like two identical paragraphs in a row (not a big deal) to staight up WRONG information such as this sentence on Page 182: "Similar to its predecessor IGRP, EIGRP has a maximum hop count of 224 and a default maximum hop count of 100.". According to Cisco, IGRP has a max hop count of 255. The second part my be correct, I don't know because the section on IGRP doesn't mention anything about its default max hop count. With these kinds of inconsistencies, I'm reluctant to commit any of this information to memory, which is the exact reason why we buy study guides, right?
If Syngress makes things right, either by refund or a completely revised second edition, I will re-post with better things to say. If not, I'll move on and never buy their stuff again."

This book was written by Dale Liu and a guy named Jesse Varsalone. There is a video of Jesse Varsalone where he basically starts with naming all his credentials and how much he knows. Sounds familiar? Anybody seeing a little pattern here of a network of scammers and people that copy paste books together?

The same Jesse Varsalone is credited in this book. Written by Dave Kleiman, Craig Wright, Jesse "James" Varsalone, Timothy.

Coincidence? I think not.


However CSW does provide a very nice test for the community. Users that tell you they are reading his work are

  • either lying (they might be shills)

  • show they don't understand Bitcoin on a rational level, only an emotional one

  • are so much smarter than CSW that they start over analyzing his stuff and come to the conclusion that he must be more brilliant than anybody can comprehend, maybe he means this ... or maybe: oh wait now this is a profound thought what if .... which is like an amplified DDOS attack. You say some vague stuff and some brilliant persons starts filling it in with their thoughts, which then attracts other people. This is I think what happened to Ryan X Charles and possibly Gavin.

    and one more thing, do you see this pic? This is how CSW wanted to look like when he was copy pasting IT books. This is how he wants to look when he is copy pasting papers on Bitcoin together.

    Brilliant actor and conman, one of the best the world has ever seen. I have seen him fool a bunch of teenagers in believing that it was him who thought birds how to fly. That's how good he is.
