Good morning! This morning I do a 2nd take of yesterday's broadcast where I had no sound. I love to look at origins of things that I really like. And I really like cypherpunks, Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. So, I found NakamotosInstitute.org and this treasure trove of information and articles surrounding all that stuff I like. Today I read through Wei Dai's B-Money written in 1998. Funny enough, 1998 was the first year I made an e-mail for myself! I am not trying to create some kind of authoritative analysis or review of Wei Dai and B-Money. I am just taking a casual look at it and hope it will light a fire under you to also do some study on the origins of cryptocurrency!
