The real news

The story, straight

Children's books usually give parents funny voices to perform. Coinbase's gives eligible adults a bitcoin offer to redeem.

Apparently bedtime needed more account administration.

Coinbase Shop is taking pre-orders for If You Find a Penny at $21.01. Each physical copy includes a unique QR code redeemable for $50 in bitcoin.

Bitcoin is digital money whose price can rise or fall; this offer is not $50 in cash.

A QR code is a square pattern your phone scans to open a webpage. Here, it opens the claim process.

The claimant must be a US resident aged 18 or older with an active, verified Coinbase account matching the submitted email. The child gets the story.

The adult gets the account check.

The product page says each code is single-use and non-transferable. US shipping only; codes expire 31 January 2027.

Coinbase targets shipping before 18 December 2026, but says timing may shift. The order limit is 5 copies per customer.

The difference between $50 and $21.01 is $28.99, not a guaranteed cash profit. Redemption has conditions, and bitcoin's value can change after deposit.

Just want the story? The digital edition is free.

You can finish bedtime without adding a financial account to the cast.
