As a native New Yorker, I think Texas has always had a bad vibe. I've hated that place since it spewed forth that halfwit George W. Bush.
Austin is cool, though. We should save those people, they are not gunslinging caveman troglodytes like the rest of the South.
New York is so much bitcoin friendly with its bitlicence scam. Wall Streets has nothing to hide or lose with bitcoin taking over.
