Hey!

I just made a new interview with Erik Voorhes here: http://www.alexfortin.com/erikvoorhes/
He talks about satoshi dice, living free from taxes in Panama and his new altcoin exchange Shapeshift.

Let me know what you think!

Appreciate the effort, thanks. When has this been recorded?

Btw you are consistently misspelling Erik's last name.

Excellent. Thanks.

You are very astute, precise, and concise with your questions. You definitely have a talent and should perhaps pursue making your own crypto-currency interview site to compete with Let's Talk Bitcoin.

He is very articulate and an excellent writer. Wish you would have asked him why he promulgated the scam Dash at a recent conference. He was also prosecuted by the SEC and settled by repaying all the investors' funds. So a smart guy, but I think he lacks technical knowledge thus he doesn't understand well the technical details. Ditto the recent Shapeshift.io failure alleged to be due to one of the programmers he hired.

I am also disappointed that you didn't ask him about our technical allegations against Ethereum and Augur in the Ethereum Paradox thread, since Erik raved about both.

can't tell if
sarcasm -or- just being frank

i will try more direct; Voorhees has offered an immediate honest dice platform (okay sold it down the river)(got rich)
Voorhees next lead with an exchange service that offers immediate instantaneous exchange service (okay got hacked but it looks like an amount that can be recovered) ... i'll take that as leadership by example, and a game changing player in the crypto space.

I understand that his life is sharpened by Etherium?

I was just being balanced in listing various observations.

I agree he is a leader by example. His weakness is he doesn't understand the details of the technology and this appears to cause him to make incorrect appraisals of what block chains can and can't accomplish.

I think he is a visionary and a smart business person. I really enjoy our talk. Who would you like me to interview next?
