I think that's one of those keys to happiness... You should never allow some random person to put something on the screen in front of you.

The internet is inherently global so it might as well have a global currency

You always have some sort of grand vision in your head and then the early steps look really humble. Usually it takes a couple of years, at least two years in my experience, for it to start to see signs of life and real success. By the five-year mark, it's really working and by 10 years, you can see an impact on the world.

Whether its self-driving cars, drone delivery, new types of medical devices, or cryptocurrency... it sometimes feels like one of the hardest things about building something new is just navigating the unclear legal or regulatory environment around it

Anything that's going to be able to change the world is going to take you at least 10 years

This might sound crazy, but if you get a good fund together and then crypto goes up a thousand X, it could be the size of the U.S. Social Security fund at some point

Today, probably only 50 million people in the world own Bitcoin or cryptocurrency

My guess is that humans and AI will somehow merge

I think crypto is almost like a new fundamental primitive of computing resources. You could imagine a world in the future where every server or machine or bot or IoT device has a little bit of crypto on it.

I think the future's going to be awesome one way or another. I'm sort of an optimist for no good reason other than that's how I'm wired.
