How many people have read the original ecash paper by David Chaum? Well, I've got you covered. In this short clip I read the introduction for you and it's quite interesting even today.

That paper is BRILLIANT! Kind of easy to read even for non technical people

Yeah it's impressive. Some of these seminal papers are succinct presentation of ideas.

read it and printed copies to distribute them

FYI - tried the QR via radio from last tape, worked like a charm with Robot32. Sadly the testnet nuts were already clamied.

fascinating work bitpunk

Ah thanks for listening! Yeah the waver can work well on the tape, but sadly on misaligned decks it will fail. I'm working on a new method that should be more resilient.

The downside is there is no nice app for it yet 😕
