    @MarkYusko – "People ask me why would someone from traditional investment world cross over to #Blockchain & #Crypto world? Because never in my 30 yrs of managing capital have I seen an asset that delivers on promise of return enhancement & risk reduction through low correlation like Bitcoin"

    @APompliano – "Bitcoin has no CEO. It has no fancy offices. It has no marketing department. It raised $0 from venture capitalist. Yet, it is worth $100 billion in just 10 years. Bitcoin is an example of why product-market fit is the only thing that ultimately matters."
