The revolution might not be televised, but it will most certainly be digitized.
Thatâs the message, at least, of my friend Jonathan Rothâs short film on blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies, titled âCryptocurrency Revolution: On the Frontlines of the Worldâs Hottest Tech Opportunity.â
I was very honored to participate in the making of this film, which takes viewers on a tour of some of the worldâs key power hubs in the cryptocurrency industry. That includes Iceland, home of the Enigma Ethereum Mine.
The largest such mining farm in the world, Enigma is the crown jewel of Genesis Mining, whose billionaire cofounder and CEO, Marco Streng, likes to compare blockchain to the earliest days of the internet.
âEveryone knows by now that this space has huge potential and drives innovation, but we canât know how big it will be,â Marco says in the film.
Similarly, few people in the mid-1990s could have guessed just how dominant Google and Amazon would become in peopleâs day-to-day lives.
This is a sentiment shared by my good friend Frank Giustra, founder of Lionsgate Entertainment, who was instrumental in helping HIVE Blockchain Technologies become the worldâs very first publically-traded blockchain and cryptocurrency mining company.
âThis game will evolve. Itâs not going to stay static,â Frank says. âWe just have to figure out how to stay relevant and part of what will be a technology that is not going to go away.â
