Kevin Monahan is the CEO of a company called Noteworthy. Noteworthy makes physical bitcoin bills in paper. The bills have the private keys on them. This might seem contradictory to the notion of digital currency, but we will discover that, in fact, it is not and some properties might actually improve in the paper version. Furthermore, Kevin worked at MyEtherWallet. The importance of this is that he has quite a bit of experience educating people in crypto.
