Joe, just watched your interview with ex bcasher nice! This is just a note for your consideration I came across the work of Gary Stevenson recently. Looks like his channel is blowing up (relatively speaking) in recent fey months https://www.youtube.com/@garyseconomics Not sure if you heard of him. He's an ex trader so knows the fiat system. Now he wants to help the poor preserve their wealth so his vibe is in the right place, me thinks. He advocates for property, shares, gold cause else inflation will eat you alive. He doesn't quite get btc, he likely thinks its scam internet token, like most of crypto. He mentions he is shorting it, to prove himself right, lol. He will likely learn at some point. Not sure if he is too busy these days cause his channel is blowing up, but maybe he be an interesting cat to explain some lightning and remittance use cases to, it still hasn't quite clicked for him. a mission for agent Joe? In the meantime, best with your ongoing secret adventures agent Joe!

I'm new to him. I only just came across him. Seems like he wants poor people to realize where all the money printing ends up, in hands of asset hoarding rich peeps, mostly. He seems genuine to me, and he's from a poor background apparently. Lol, but anything could be a psyop these days, fml I'm just spending 2 days of my life now consuming his content. Dude is rich and doesn't need btc for himself, but anyway, just thought your variety of experiences with all kinds of btc usecases could be interesting for him, if he took the time. If he could realize that this is potentially a valuable alternative asset class, limited supply secured by things you cant fake, aka energy spend, that would be a start. Then if he realized how its helping poor (and likewise non poor) plebs to start saving and thinking about the future and how accessible self custody can be, with basic education, a lightbulb might go off. Don't worry about zapping me, lol. I should zap you, this is a throwaway. The message is relevant, not the sender :)
