So, freaks, it's your boy Marty Ben here to introduce this episode of Tales from the Crypt.

0:04.9

I had the immense pleasure of sitting down at Randy Brito, founder, co-founder of the Loca Mesh Network,

0:12.5

and BTC Ven down in Venezuela. Randy has been doing incredible work, trying to build out

0:18.5

a mesh network that would allow individuals to send messages to each other

0:25.3

in a peer-to-peer fashion.

0:26.5

This would help Bitcoin out because it would provide another transaction relay network
