How To Change The World With Bitcoin

“Time has 3 components. Past, present and future. The key property of the past is that it's immutable, it's fixed, you can't change it. The key property of the present is that it's open to all, it's a shared experience, it's ubiquitous. The key property of the future is that it's bound to happen, you can't stop it. It’s exactly the same with Bitcoin.”

Recently leaving his rewarding job as an electronics consultant to join the ranks of Bitcoin entrepreneurs. He is now supported by Anthemis Group to delve into the world of finance and turn his business idea into reality.

This power, in the hands of a rapidly growing community of entrepreneurs, has the potential to fulfil the vision of finally bringing finance to the digital age.
