About the book

As an obscure experiment becomes a global market, Eli builds software, a company, and a fortune almost no one around him can see. Money promises freedom. Instead, secrecy starts shaping every relationship in his life. His closest friend is building a future of his own. The woman Eli loves may not have room for the life he refuses to explain. His company is growing faster than his certainty.

By the time the world catches up, Eli must decide whether wealth can protect the life he wants or quietly cost him everything that made it worth having.

Set against the rise of Bitcoin and Ethereum from 2010 to 2018, Unspent is a character-driven novel about ambition, love, loyalty, and the difference between value and price.
