Knut Svanholm is an international village idiot whose biggest claim to fame is the infamous bitcoin meme ``Everything divided by 21 million,'' which is also the title of his best-selling book. Currently, he spends his days hosting the Freedom Footprint Show and advising a handful of bitcoin companies and non-profit organizations. His writings are (generally) revered in the bitcoin space. Recently, he wrote a book about the science of human action, Praxeology. Occasionally, you’ll find him entertaining people at conferences by speaking, playing guitar, moderating panels, or reciting inappropriate dad jokes to the wrong people.
He had been sent to this forgotten part of the country by his employers at The Deep Sea Construction Company to examine blueprints for a construct that he would never fully understand. They were building something big on the seabed of the lake next to the village, but his security clearance curtailed any specific details about the project.
