Anthony von Dessauer and Psyduck
Anthony von Dessauer (who did the initial interview) and Psyduck profile Matteo Pellegrini's Orange Pill App, founded November 2022 as a geolocation-based social network for finding nearby bitcoiners, events and merchants. Pellegrini defends the $3/month paywall as spam and scam defence that keeps the company from selling user data, and the writers stress that location can be set rather than broadcast, at ~10-mile precision, with lightning payments adding privacy. The piece ends with a roster of core staff and advisors including Natalie Brunell, BTC Sessions, Daniel Prince, Knut Svanholm and Joe Hall.
