  1. What do you do at zebedee? Do you get paid as a pseudonym?
  2. What's a belief you hold about the future of Bitcoin that hasn't occurred to most bitcoiners or that most bitcoiners don't believe?
  3. What's your view on DIDs? Will we end up using the more involved standards/protocols people are building on these things in the future?

  1. I've done work in the Telegram and Discord bots, CSGO integration, the core payments backend, the mobile wallet, the browser extension, I do whatever I can I guess. No, they know my name.
  2. I believe Bitcoin will have a lot of custodianship in the future to be able to scale but that won't be a problem once governments get out of the way with their draconian anti-custodianship laws.
  3. Every time a protocol says "oh you can do this same thing in multiple ways" what it is actually saying is "every implementation will have to support all ways to remain compatible". That kills protocols, kills network effect, kills adoption, kills decentralization.
