Visionarrow

Jake said “When I learned about Bitcoin, it struck me as an engineering solution to what I saw as a whole group of intractable political problems – misaligned incentives, rent-seeking behaviour, disrespect for privacy rights.“ 

Jake wants to take cryptocurrency and use to solve a lot of the real time problems that the world is facing right now.
