Hi friends!

I've finished week 3 of my month long writing challenge and am well into the final week. Below, find the new posts since my last email. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the one about Stacks being the Paypal Mafia of bitcoin was by far the most popular and generated the most interaction. My audience is largely bitcoin and Stacks related and token financial incentives work.

I'm still deciding if I'll continue this daily habit after the conclusion of the month. If I do, I'd probably separate these daily posts in away that makes it more clear that they are largely unedited, unresearched stream of conscious rambling as opposed to the carefully word-smithed, well-researched articles I've written in the past.

Would love to hear your thoughts. As always, thanks for reading!

Yours,

Larry
