All right, hello everybody. We'll get this kicked off very very shortly. Before we do, if you could all please like and retweet this Twitter space, it really helps to get more people involved and help get more eyes on this fantastic project. We'll kick it off in about one minute.
Okay, I think we're good to go. We've got everyone in attendance. We will start with you, Wiley. Can you hear me loud and clear?
Yeah, good good. What about myself? I really started in just in case you know what it's like. I got you. I've got you. I've got you. I've got you.
and we had one more. Let me go. I would see you in the early. I've sent you guys all in white to speak. If you haven't got those put your hand up in a request, we'll start with that. We're worried but it'd be good to hear from everybody in the team as well.
All right, Wiley, I guess we'll start with the key people behind the product. It's always interesting to learn a little bit more about what inspired you to do this wire on this journey, how you got here and I guess where you're going. So could you start just with a bit of a bit of an interesting
production to yourself, so your professional work history of what you've done up to this point. And also, Curie is what your first interaction with crypto was. And that first sort of thing that sparked your curiosity, wanted to make you look deeper.
Yeah, yeah, first of all, thanks for having us on. It's a surprise to have this off. So yeah, I'm James Wiley. Some might be me posting as Wiley in the community. So I run Rad node, being run in that sense, being a pleasure.

art, blue chips, you name it, you know, I've kind of been through the middle of it. So yeah, in terms of crypto, it's been a bit of a sad story actually because back in 2010, I was probably trawling
some PHP 4 or something. And I've seen a post-free magic beans, you know, it's a free magic beans. That's what I know. The most of crypto is us chasing magic beans or being sold magic beans, 100%. Yeah, exactly.
I'm going to take a look into these magic beans. Of course, this was Bitcoin. I looked into this and I thought, "This is very interesting. It's fascinating and malgommation of finance
democracy and tech. I can see the value in it. So like gold but suppose it's got a finite reserve and it allows people to transact it, it makes sense. So start looking into the mining aspect, downloaded CGMiner which was
like CPU mining back then proper primitive and just press the button I thought I'm rich now watch this go anyway so about three hours later return big fat zero I just turned it
