What’s his view on tontines that hold bitcoin?
In my opinion, the world needs more of that Bodhisattva mentality - voluntary sticking around to improve the situation of others even though you could easily disappear towards a better life. Easier said than done but the temptation to drive off into the sunset in your lambo and forget the problems of the world must be pretty strong.

Does he think that the success of Bitcoin is independent of society's behavior, or could society screw this up?
Jeff is a great communicator. Congratulations on getting him on the show! Looking forward to listening to it… Here is my question: When it comes to orangepilling with the original Bitcoin ethos (peer-to-peer cash, no third parties required), who* are the MOST important targets for the orangepilling? * Everybody is the only unacceptable answer. My answer: The people working for the police and the army. The reason is simple -- the government has the monopoly on violence. And these are the people who enforce the violence. #orangepilling #bitcoin #jeffbooth #monopoly #violence
I am really looking forward to hearing his answer. Jeff might have a different answer. Perhaps he is going to say that the right answer is journalists, teachers, or something like that... Or perhaps Jeff says that he does not know what the right answer is -- or that it depends on the country and culture. Or perhaps Jeff says that "the answer is the Keynesian economists" and angrily adds that "It should be crystal clear for everyone, and only people with low double digit IQs do not get it." There are many ways of looking at this question. Let's see what he says.

You maybe right but I don't think this will scale or attract talent that will commit long term.
