The Safenetwork is up for testing and Peter’s clearly excited he was given the chance to add cryptogoss to their network. We talked about the implications of working from an encrypted decentralised network, one that gives us the choice to keep matters private, how does a platform that provides security affect how we relate to each other?

Peter uncovered an encrypted coin in a mailbox leaflet and reads out claims that lead him to think it’s a scam - ‘insert claims here’ watch for an s coin in your letterbox.

We discussed some of the events happening at Melbourne’s Bitcoin Technology center, it’s buzzing with activity :)
