I enjoyed the conversation, but you pretty clearly don't know the people I'm talking about. They aren't crypto people. They're more likely to be gold bug types. Scott Horton runs the institute and is primarily known for his anti-war work and they mostly focus on issues that don't directly relate to bitcoin. Of course there are lame libertarians, as you were hung up on, but that's not particularly relevant to anything.

@k00b described the situation pretty well, but I'm not sure you were really listening to him. Part of the idea is that I think these guys would all be receptive to bitcoin, but it just isn't their top priority, so they haven't invested in getting involved in our space. The flip side of this is that plebs are very receptive to these ideas, but our the leading libertarian voices aren't getting to them directly. There's a massive win-win here and I'm hoping to help it be realized.

Great episode, as always. I hope you'll write about your Fountain only experiment.
