There's a reason why seagulls fly over the sea... if they flew over the bay instead of the sea, they would become bagels.

So, despite the crypto market being "down" — the demand for Blockchain engineers seems to keep increasing

Which either means a whole bunch of smart people will be very wrong... OR the world has yet to catch up to all this newfangled "blockchain" mumbo jumbo. 

Anyway... we've been busy getting ready for an Alpha release of Zombie Battleground and a whole bunch of other things.

In fact, to get the party started, let me teach you...

Got any suggestions on how I could make them more valuable?

See ya in two weeks!

Your friend,

P.SRobert Greene (one of my favorite authors, whom I also interviewed many years ago), just released his newest book called The Laws of Human Nature. It's going to be a classic. Also, many of you enjoyed the Alan Watts clip from the last newsletter. If you were one of those folks, take a look at The Dream of Life by Alan Watts πŸ˜‰
