Jeff, thank you for all that you do to help shed light on the dawning days of a new global financial paradigm. For you and more so for those who may be reading: on a very basic level, I really wouldn't "trust" your offerings except for the fact that they are profitable for you. This may sound rather shallow to some, but true philanthropy can only be achieved by a profitable enterprise in a truly free market, be it via composting toilets in Cambodia or water generators in the arid expanses of Africa and Indo-China.
I wish to thank you for expounding upon concepts and technologies rarely covered by the "mainstream media" in my current locale of West Virginia, US. After some abrupt shifts in life over the past six months, I've had the time to utilize the public posts from TDV as a platform for realizing the paradigm shift that is necessary, and currently happening, to create any sort of true equity in the world.

As you have expressed, anyone with an internet connection can generate funds that are directly translatable to their local currencies with minimal utilization of financial intermediaries, at lower transaction rates, and with a relative simplicity not offered by fiat banking systems. I agree that cryptocurrencies, though having gained a lot of steem, are still in their relative infancy and that the concepts of decentralized currency and INDIVIDUALLY PROFITABLE social media have the capacity to improve the quality of life for billions across the globe.
Anyway, I’m actually getting ready to start working for a bank (HA!), but it’s certainly ephemeral while working on my corporatized "masters" degree and progressing toward a sound financial standing in the midst of the devaluation of the dollar. I just want to thank you for sharing your knowledge with the collective us. I'm definitely subscribing to TDV Premium as soon as I am able, and recommend anyone reading to at least subscribe to the basic membership after you check out TDV’s public offerings. I feel fortunate to be posting on Steemit at this moment in time, buckle up!!!
See you at Anarchapulco one of these days,
