Show notes:

Take-aways from the episode:

• Crypto is not really anonymous
• Crypto is both regulated and taxed (at least here in the US)
• Legal uses of crypto outweigh illegal uses.  This stuff is legitimate.  There are dangers, but crypto is something you might legitimately possess
• There are scammers everywhere.  Protecting the private key in your wallet is vital to keeping your money: don’t lose it, don’t let it be stolen, don’t give it away.  Stealing your private key is much easier than stealing US dollars out of your bank account.
