Hey everyone, I was invited to an interview on Pirate Radio...
https://www.wprpn.com/They are pretty popular on "minds.com" supposedly. The audio was a little rough since I was at my friends place and it was a laptop mic.
I was sure to mention BitBay and the pegging stuff. All in all it was fun.
Here is the link:

Yeah I hold my license in California, did several deals during the collapse. It taught me a lot about how almost nothing I read in my books applied to reality. I think the best business model for real estate brokers is "find and assign" although I never tried it, it's very similar to being a lead aggrigator but you get a higher cut and no liability. It's basically referrals but better. But honestly there is way more potential in building homes in 3rd world countries. The USA is a tight margin with limited options unless you are a millionaire.
Also did work for Dakota Land Services as a landsmen. I did easements and charting out fiber optic and oil lines. The job was amazing, it paid like 350 a day. I only held that job for a few months though. It was the exact same time I got into crypto and bought Litecoin. I got fired because I made my female managers jealous by coding a program to type the easements using winautomation and other programs. It was my first time ever trying to code anything. I made something to parse addresses in Python and that's how I picked up coding. It was funny because with that software I finished a job that normally takes weeks in one day and got fired for it.
I guess that's office politics for you. You see even though it saves the company millions, the employees get paid more the longer they procrastinate. So doing the job too fast is bad for business even though the boss can make the difference in his cut.
When I saw the Litecoin market crash after going from 2 dollars to 50 I had the idea for Halo because the Chinese were complaining that there was no way to buy Bitcoin. So I realized double deposit could solve their problems.
Unfortunately, I should have sold the Litecoin and just bought whatever random altcoins i could find since everything was pumping no matter how random the coin was. But I was new to trading, I was such a n00b I thought the order book was the history of buys and sales. But eventually I figured it out and started coding Halo. Actually I had the idea for Halo the same day I got fired and my friend was talking to me over the phone and was like "you should quit your job and do that". Go figure.
Lots of similar stories out there. I was working as a career firefighter when Apple/Microsoft and IBM started to take off in the 80's. Department got a new Apple II and IBM pc (serial number 0000600) but had no idea what to do with them. Chief shows up and says "Here, make this work, you know about electronics" Sure, I was a radio tech, not a programmer. A couple months later the dept had a run reporting system, Novell Network (ELS 1), record keeping and equipment databases and I had some new skills (ADA, Basic, C++ & Turbo Pascal) Got the bug for going on line to BBS's and started one for the department (InfoNet) Long story short, a few years down the road, retired and started an Internet provider company that went national before we sold it. Been working and playing in the industry ever since. Got the crypto bug in '13 and now takes up most of my free time but, so far, it's been worth it. Just don't get as much exercise as I should now! My wife was also a coder (and Paramedic), worked for the FAA and was on the team that developed the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) for aircraft that went online in 1989. Its been a wild ride. Keep on trucking!
PS: Learned a few things along the way one of which is: "Never try to help someone who doesn't ask for it." That would apply to your experience as a landsman!
