It would be a cheap way of exchanging crypto for sovereign fiat without KYC

Yep I don't see it would be a problem. It is an asset like any other asset



Currently I live in Liverpool in the UK. I wasn't born there and have never had a relationship with the city until now. It's just that I used to live in Tokyo, (the longest I have ever lived anywhere) and when I came back to London I nearly had a heart attack at the rental costs. I looked round for a city that was cheap and had compact center in which I could run a business project. Liverpool was by far and away the best option. This had lots of plus points too.

    I live on one of the four original streets from 1207 AD so it oozes history.
    The people are really friendly in comparison to London.
    It's very international.
    There are some fantastic and historical pubs.
    There is a big range of public galleries.
    There are some good theaters.
    The weather is probably the best in the UK.
    I can walk pretty much any place I need to go.
    The Chinatown has some great restaurants/supermarkets.
    Add to that London is only 90 minutes by train. It can take you longer to commute from the burbs of London to the centre.

 I did an undergrad degree in neurophysiology specializing in neurogenesis. Although I found that academically interesting I found that I couldn't deal with the practical side so that was the end of that. I then did a masters in Fine Art and had a studio on the South Bank of the Thames when it was uber-cool to do so. Did a lot of posing - like you do ...cough. It was fashionable at the time for the financial sector to employ artists as analysts as they thought that artists (especially ones with a scientific background like me) could offer an alternative perspective on the financial markets. Within a few years I got parcelled off to Japan for the simple reason that they knew I had a Japanese girlfriend and that I had lived there before. Cue their plans for for a Japanese office going up in smoke and me deciding to stay for a while. I pretty much multi-tasked while I was there doing everything from work in patent attorneys, promote and organise gigs for European bands, work on early LMSes and LCMSes, international legal research, company formation, business consulting, etc. I even wrote the marketing slogan for Nissan Diesel which appeared in all their adverts for about 4 years -

Nissan Diesel - Driving Innovation

think about it.....

As you can see I'm a bit of a jack of all trades and master of none. That extends to everything that I do. I rush to learn about things I don't know about knocking off the top three or four layers before moving on.

    
 I've been collecting rare apple scions and grafting them to rootstocks to that I can guerilla plant them on brown land throughout the city. Give it a few years and there will be orchards where factories and docks used to be. I've also been planting willow and hazel which can be used for basketry and fencing. Willow and hazel fencing is so much nicer than concrete and brick. I also scatter calendula around - they self seed and It makes for a really beautiful "weed" - like giant orange daisies.

I'm a big music fan - pretty eclectic in my tastes and like most genres. At school and college played in bands, originally as a bassist and later a singer - ended up organising events and doing distribution in Japan for European bands in my spare time. it's hard to pick out a favorite band. I tend to like individual tracks rather than just favour a band. I don't really want to put a list of things I really like as I feel I would be doing certain songs I like a disjustice. 

And to finish here is a list of my favorite books

    Foucault's Pendulum - Umberto Eco
    The Master and Margarita - Mikhail Bulgakov
    The Most Beautiful Woman in Town - Charles Bukowski.
    The Doctor Strangelove Game - Paul Strathern
    Excession - Iain M Banks
    Paddington at Large - Michael Bond.

All the books (except Paddington ofc) are pretty hard to get into but once you get past the first chapter I found they draw you in.


I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
