Andreas M. Antonopoulos is an early pioneer, adopter & educator in the Bitcoin/Crypto space if you have not heard of him.
He is BRILLIANT.
If you get a little lost listening to him, do not worry. The guy is SO smart and well spoken.
He routinely puts out some of the best information going. He speaks plainly and simply with some humour!

-- Andreas' Logo he uses for his branding, he is fun. That is the top of his head, looking down.
LOL.

He travels the world preaching the Bitcoin, Liberty, Crypto and Blockchain gospel and is one of the most well respected lecturers and teachers in the crypto world!

*Notes on this video from Andreas:*
What would a state-sponsored attack look like (technological, financial, political, legal, social, etc.)? What is the geopolitical impact of Bitcoin and other decentralised open blockchains?
The first set of questions are from the patron-only live Q&A which took place on December 16th 2017. The second set of questions are from the patron-only live Q&A which took place on February 24th 2018. The third question is from part of a talk which took place at Pebble Beach for the Capgemini CXO Forum on November 1-3rd 2017 in Monterey, California.

###### Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
###### This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
###### I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
###### Carry On.
