A little question: Bytemaster said that it would be very difficult to maintain several KeyIDs. My listener asked me why it is difficult, do you know?
Rotten from inside. Sad.

So.. was there any big news?
We'll know him when we see him. True to pattern, he'll remind us that HE started and built BitShares, before someone else compromised it. Name dropping ensues, followed by a mention of Etherum's might. And then an opinion or two on what we should do next, which generally has some really abstract, experimental, no-value-added concept attached to it. Believe it or not, I like him too.
