This document is an email from 'Joi' (likely Joi Ito) providing an update on the MIT Digital Currency Initiative, circa April 2015. The email details the hiring of Brian Forde from the White House, lists key supporters and advisory council members, and outlines plans for academic partnerships. A legal disclaimer at the bottom indicates the communication is the property of 'JEE' (Jeffrey E. Epstein), suggesting Ito was reporting to Epstein on the initiative's progress.
