“Never. Stop. Building.” Rick, President of CryptoCloaks

CryptoCloaks LLC was born from the love of 3D printing and the idea of Bitcoin. Their passion for 3D design sparked in December of 2017 with their first product, a Ledger Nano S mount. This product allowed them to safely and securely keep the Ledger hidden. After the success from this mount they quickly grew. Their highly sought after products have shipped to the United States, Japan, Austrailia, Germany, Mexico, Canada, China, Switzerland, UK, France, Norway, Romania, Slovenia, Ireland, Czech Republic, Reunion, The Netherlands, Thailand, Lativa, Poland, Israel, and Spain.

In this episode we discuss how Rick got started in 3D printing, his bitcoin origin story, trends, character, getting started with the Lightning Network, running a full node, services to help you get there and communities you can join.

A Conversation With Rick, President @ CryptoCloaks 

Written by Alexandra Moxin

This episode features Roman Martínez, Community Leader and co-founder of Bitcoin Beach. We discuss the founding of Bitcoin Beach, one of the world’s first Bitcoin Economic Ecosystems, located in El Zonte, a world-famous surfing destination on the coast of El Salvador. Bitcoin Beach formed as a team of four people: Mike Peterson, Jorge Valenzuela, Hirvin Palma, and Roman Martinez, who shared the same dream. Before coming to El Zonte, they were working on social initiatives related to education, recreation, spirituality, and empowerment.

In El Zonte, the majority of people do not have access to bank accounts, and the local businesses could never qualify for business loans, or the merchant accounts needed to accept credit cards. From the early days Bitcoin promised to empower and bank the unbanked, a promise which, until recently, had remained elusive. Bitcoin Beach is a movement to realize the true potential of Bitcoin, and to ensure that those who have been excluded from the banking system are the primary beneficiaries.

Backed by the donation of an anonymous early Bitcoin adopter, Bitcoin Beach has a mission to prove that Bitcoin would positively impact on the lives of those that society often ignores. Find out how you can support, donate [https://platform.engiven.com/give/8/widget/34], learn, and get involved at Bitcoin Beach.com [https://www.bitcoinbeach.com/].

“In traditional, online multiplayer games, players spend hours and hours building, in our case, spaceships and [unique game assets]. In Infinite Fleet you’ll be rewarded with INF by taking part in these big events … and with that currency, you’re able to trade peer to peer digital items that you’ve built.” Chris Wood

This episode features Chris Wood, Chief Operating Officer at Pixelmatic, creators of Infinite Fleet their new MMO video game. I ask Chris what it’s like being COO, and what it’s like working for Samson :-)

We discuss where Pixelmatic is at with game and story development of Infinite Fleet and what features gamers can expect to see. We delve into the in-game Bitcoin backed cryptocurrency INF which will be available throughout gameplay, and the NFT game assets, both issued on Liquid.

I ask Chris about Bitcoin, what excites and keeps him in the space, dollar cost averaging and why its important to stay humble. We talk about what the day to day is like at Pixelmatic, challenges and pivots. We go in depth about the INF in-game token issued on Liquid, the raise in the EU via stokr.io and raise in the US.

To close out the episode I ask Chris if he has any questions for the audience, and he’s curious what people think about NFTs.

Thank you. Thank you for having me.

One of the reasons for the show existing is to talk about the concept of self sovereignty and empowerment. Your Twitter bio says Bitcoin, sailing, music, self sovereignty, flag theory, opting-out and voyager. Can you explain what self sovereignty is to you?

Katie 0:53

Through my lifestyle, all the experiences that I had somehow led me to this concept of self sovereignty. For me, self sovereignty is self reliance. So ideally, when there’s nobody between you and all the necessities you have in life, such as safety, food, water. When, as a default, in tough situations or decision making, you turn to yourself instead o

Joining me today are two very special guests Max Sills who is IP Counsel at Square and also General Manager at Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA). We also have Jed Grant, CEO and founder of KYC3 and Co-Founder of the Open Crypto Alliance (OCA), where I’m also a board member. Welcome.

Max Sills 00:54 Hi.

Jed Grant 00:54 Thanks for having us.

Alexandra933 00:56 So, Max, how did you get into this space? Could you tell our listeners and viewers a little bit about your background?

Max Sills 01:01 Sure. So I’ve always been interested in crypto. My interest started in law school. I was interning at the Securities Exchange Commission in the risk finance division then, and I was just getting so excited about new financial products. I really believed in the SEC mission, we worked on the crowdfunding regulations there, we really wanted to democratize finance while also protecting people from crazy investments. So before my current role, I was working at Google, when I started at Google, I had a very legalistic, very transactional mindset about business about everything. I started working in the open source group on open source licensing and open source legal policy and over the six or seven years, I was there, my entire world changed. My whole worldview changed. My philosophy changed. I think I went from being very, there’s a legal mindset you know for a baby lawyer, very adversarial to realizing how important sharing was. And it was just amazing to me learning more about the open source community and open source developers. First how much people pour their heart and souls into public projects with little or no expectation of payment, but also how much money and how much progress can be made through open sharing. So it just changed my whole philosophy. I was running our open source licensing and policy for a while and the square opportunity was really interesting, because it helped me get back to my roots in finance but where open source was really interesting because it was about collaborative development on software. Crypto is even
