The Rocky theme should be playing in the background on his answer to the last one.

This was my question from “Crypto Kylie”. :grinning:

I managed to catch this AMA while I was fixing some stuff on her channel, and asked the question.

Great AMA though, and thanks @werkof for making that list with time stamps.

Where did you ask the question? On YouTube comments?

No, it was just random during the live stream. I just happened to be at my computer and saw the “live” icon next to Charles YouTube channel so I clicked on it — Surprise AMA, about 10 minutes into the live stream so I threw out my question in the live chat and he answered it.

Best. Day. Ever.
