This is an amazing news @exyle the entire family of yours is coming on the blockchain. @clio @ezzy and others. I'm pleased to hear this news.
Concerning your bro,
He's the dad of Juliet, my niece. (the owner of a little bit of bitcoin).
I like that. It's a plus for the steem cryptocurrency. If he doesn't have time to blog, he could just keep curating or delegate some SP to a stable and trusted project on steemit.
