Super interesting. Ukraine moving to allow crypto to be legal payments. That being said, submitting your public key to the government, etc. is probably necessary to bring this about, but makes me uncomfortable. neivert.com/4x9wd

A solid use for blockchain tech. The immutable, no double spend issues, etc. make it great for a lot of supply chain issues, and renewable cert are another one. neivert.com/04n32

More progress on digital currency. I personally am not a fan of a government-controlled digital currency, but still super interesting to see how this progresses. cointelegraph.com/news/china…

Interesting use case. Using blockchain and hopefully crypto for roaming charges between telecoms. neivert.com/uh3q4

Interesting. France moving forward with a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency). Interesting that it is France. neivert.com/pz73g

Stunningly I am not surprised. At all, not in the least. Seriously when people promise your everything why do you keep believing them!? Hope is important for humanity, but a bit of skepticism will save you a lot of money. neivert.com/s15bs

Columbia on top with NYU up there too, lots of crypto education in NYC. neivert.com/9zriz

I disagree it is not insane at all, it depends on why you are holding BTC.... neivert.com/ai9ih

Gift cards are interesting on/off ramp bypassing a lot of issues. Not my thing, but I totally get why folks like it. neivert.com/utq1a

A step forward to accepting cypto as another currency. neivert.com/g1dlj

There is a continuing move to de-anonymous crypto in general with China's digital currency (very much not anonymous) to removing Monero from exchanges. Pushing Crypto to act more and more like the main financial system. neivert.com/8p5cl

I like this. Take a paper-based process and move to the blockchain to give visibility on private placements. Cool. neivert.com/6vscd

Cool. Booking Hotels with BTC. Not a fan of booking.com but interesting. cointelegraph.com/news/crypt…

Yes good and bad. Moving stuff to the private section could be a big boon, but there is more risk of illegal activity, if only they worked with the crypto companies to get the best of both worlds. If only... neivert.com/3sxqx

Donor controlled foundations are legal, but major tax hacks. Not a big fan of this, yeah it is legal but feels like cheating to do a tax write off but not really actually donate the money. neivert.com/xe4zo
Although patents are indicators of value, just because you have them does not mean they useful and valuable. However, in an odd twist. Chinese companies holding patents is super valuable, but American companies holding the same patent is mostly useless. cointelegraph.com/news/with-…
