The headline is about some mentions of PMs that amount to nothing while burying this inside?

In one email from September 2017, Austin Hill, co-founder of Blockstream, a Vancouver-based blockchain company, wrote to Epstein asking how his island was after a storm and to “ping me if you’d like to talk crypto or ICO’s.”

As the two exchanged messages, Hill asked Epstein what he thought about “these ICOs & SEC/Hatch Act vs the crazy crypto cowboys?”

“Lots to discuss,” Epstein replied. “(U.S. government) very nervous.”

“Yeah - we are trying to get Justin Trudeau & the provinces to do a regulatory power move up here to create a safe framework,” Hill said. “Take the action the (U.S.) can’t handle & help our markets compete.”

Hill later added: “If we add our immigration policy for entrepreneurs & some AI s--t we have brewing / give us functioning crypto markets … Canada might just end up being America’s hat forever.”

Wtf? That's way more interesting.
