Journalist Glenn Greenwald said Thursday that Edward Snowden is the “happiest person” he's “ever met” at the Bitcoin 2022 conference during a panel that linked bitcoin to libertarian and third-party ideals.

Greenwald, who notably broke the Snowden-NSA civilian surveillance story for The Guardian in 2013, recalled that when he first met the former NSA agent in Hong Kong, he expected an "old, ragged, national security guy in his 60s" who had already fulfilled his life goals. In reality, Snowden was very different from what Greenwald had envisioned during their online correspondence.
Greenwald's reporting won a Pulitzer Prize for public service in 2014. A film based on his reporting, "Citizenfour" by Laura Poitras, won an Oscar.
