For the past five years, musician, entrepreneur, and bitcoin enthusiast Jon Collins-Black has been collecting various wonders at auctions held all over the world. From valuable artifacts that belonged to Picasso, George Washington, or Amelia Earhart, to Pokémon cards (yes, they're worth that much) and emeralds unearthed in Latin American countries, Collins-Black has amassed a fortune that could now be yours. Or anyone else's who buys the book "There's Treasure Inside."

Baby steps...

Having amassed his fortune through investments in digital currencies, Jon has decided to give something back to society with a grand treasure hunt: $2 million worth of items have been hidden inside five chests (one large and four small) scattered across the vastness of the United States, in unknown locations. To join the hunt, all you have to do is get your hands on Collins-Black's upcoming release, "There's Treasure Inside," a book that, besides personal growth narratives and world history, will contain clues to find the chests.

Speaking of the chests, each one was designed to be a puzzle in itself, forged and assembled by a blacksmith over the course of more than a year. So, once discovered, they must be handled with care—just like the care Jon Collins-Black took when writing his book, a feat he accomplished with a small group of people to prevent any information from leaking ahead of time. For this very reason, the first edition of "There's Treasure Inside" contains some grammatical errors—mistakes that, according to the author, are not clues. They are simply errors, a rather pertinent warning considering the number of conspiracy theorists who might join the adventure.

Among other items buried in the boxes are things like a blue lotus gold ring, belongings of Henry David Thoreau, Jackie O, and artist and industrial designer Louis Comfort Tiffany, as well as the Casascius bitcoin, the world's first physical digital coin (or something like that).

Collins-Black has clarified that if the search drags on for too long, he will release more clues, as he doesn't want his treasure to become a mere legend trapped in time.
