>> So excited to see how many people have come here to Blocksburg. And are really interested in changing the world. What I want to talk about today is the bigger picture. Why are we doing Blockchain? Whether it's voting, or stocks or shareholders but we're doing all this because of.

A bigger movement, right. I didn't get into this to do Blockchain. I found Blockchain because I wanted to change the world, I want to make the world a better place. My hope is that what we as an organization are remembered for is having expanded the use case of Blockchain technology and been good custodians for its developments.
