just finished lets talk bitcoin interview. it was terrifying. i definitely didn't do anywhere near as well as in my no pressure interview with tai zen. hopefully its not so bad that i have to move to Africa and live under a rock from now on.

I have every confidence that you did brilliantly; Stephanie is a great interviewer and I'm sure she handled you beautifully. I know, based on her comments in this week's "Sex and Science" show (one of her other podcasts) that she is skeptical of Proof of Stake, but I also know that you have a terrific facility for explaining such things.

Can't wait! Smiley


well i do generally but i didn't this time Sad

Background:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5280786

DETAILS ON VOTING :

Per our pervious poll, all committees will consist of five elected members.

I am setting this vote up on a special voting website to avoid sock puppets.  To vote, you are going to need a three digit ID number and an eight character password.    I will send this data to all nominees and candidates via PM in the next 24 hours without further action on your part.   If you were not on the "blue nominee / green candidate" list and want to vote, send me a PM with just the word VOTE in the title.  I will respond with your ID / password combo.  I will know who voted but I will not know who you voted for.

We have seven days and I believe this will be plenty of time.  I just want to get it right, so  please bear with me while I set this all up.  

Further instructions to come...

Thank you for putting the work into this project.

Speaking of Iceland...

I’m considering the marketing effect if we tested a NxtCoin as national currency in Christiania, Copenhagen. It’s a self-proclaimed autonomous neighbourhood of about 850 residents. But Christiania is visited by 500.000 tourists every year.

The media attention that Christiania gets, will benefit us. And vice versa. And in quite a few ways we share common grounds. It's like the old meets the new.

Christiania is a social experiment in it's origin. Talking decision making, it's a live version of our Nxt community. Chrisitanists make consensus-based decisions in matters that concern their whole community. OMG, it's long haired, and I admire it, the strength of discussing until consensus is reached. In difficult matters, this could be the next morning, or half a year. Undecided But they always get there.

Customers in Christinia choose whether they want their change in Danish Kroner or LØN (the Christianian currency since 1997). Christiania has it's own coin, but they might be interested in going digital. Christiania has strong feelings about the environment, and with Nxt “making Greenpeace happy” and all, it would be a perfect fit.

Christiania "consensus"-meetings are closed for outsiders, but I am pretty sure that I can get in + bring another from the Nxt community with me, using my contacts. Even if the whole of Christiania does not agree on making a unique LØN NxtCoin their local currency, the shops in Christiania could easily begin accepting Nxt.

Imagine the media attention, if a society like Christiania agreed on making Nxt - or a coin made on top of Nxt - their "national currency". If "INTERESTED", let me know.

Barack Obama is a smooth talker; if that makes you feel any better. I know you have helped me in understanding NXT and its capabilities. You seem like a regular guy, and it is good that the NXT representative is a regular guy. Thanks.

I've done quite a few radio interviews, including Let's Talk Bitcoin, and let me tell you... it's often terrifying. I'm sure you did great, you continue to be such an asset to the community. Kudos.

Those free tickets, why not give them away through r/NXT? Maybe there are people in the area that could benefit from this & reddit can give attention in a small amount of time.

@Anon136
I'm sure you did a great job at LTB, i have absolutely no doubt.

I'm wrapping up work now, spending a little time with my girl and back to Nxt activities. r/NXT is a great idea... if someone wants to run with it, all they need to do is either message me here or drop me an email at justabitoftime[at]gmail and I'll get them on the list.

is there any way to delete or modify an asset?

If not, would that become a problem when many mistyped assets remains in the blockchain?

We have 12 free tickets, if anyone wants to attend, I will give them for free.

Well if people criticize you, they can do the interview themselves.
