TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Andrey Sabelnikov, aka Cryptozoidberg founder of the Zano Project and apparent primary dev on the very earliest Cryptonote code.

They discuss his journey into the cryptocurrency space, his role in working with Nicolas van Saberhagen on the first implementation of crypto note in the form of Bytecoin, and his relationship with the Monero project.

Perhaps most positive in terms of Monero was Andrey discussing his admiration of the Monero researchers and the size of the monero community. Despite his mixed feelings about how he was treated by the Monero devs in the early days, he now has respect for the progress the project has made.

While we can’t verify the veracity of everything Andrey said, it all seemed very genuine and we have been told by some monero OGs that cryptozoidberg was involved in the earliest days of cryptonote. We hope to continue conversation with him and who knows...maybe he will work on Monero one day too.

Our first episode of Monero Talk! We hope to make this a weekly thing. It is time. Monero needs a YouTube show. We are not core developers or anything - we are just Monero fanatics. We hope to get respected community members to join the show once in awhile. The mission is to report on all things Monero and to broadcast the revolution!
