It's exciting to see Reddit Founder, and Serena Williams' Husband, Alexis Ohanian boosting blockchain in a big way. Reddit's new integrated crypto wallet is continuing to wow me. It's super easy to use and could be a big leap forward in adoption. Transcript:Hey guys, AltcoinAuthor. So you may have seen that I did a post today on Reddit founder, Alexis ohanian. So if you don't know, this winner is a guy that married Serena Williams. He started Reddit which is the number four website United States. And he talks about crypto spring in response to what has been seen for last two years is like the crypto winter that just seems to go on and on and on. So, just a little bit of a background Alexis started Reddit now he's doing full time venture capital he invested in Coinbase early so he's very much in crypto. And as I detailed in the last video slash podcasts that read it now has a vault. And in that vaults you can hold their their moons for their cryptocurrency subreddit and bricks for the fortnight subreddit, and they're kind of playing around with it and they kind of, they make it really easy. They give you the option when you make it on the iOS or Android device to either click in and save the password yourself where you can like secure it yourself. Or you can, you know, secure it on your Reddit account, which is really convenient. So that's what I did. And then within a standard, this is all test net right now all these are being on you know, so you can be they're not really using any resources, per se, but they're talking about this summer going live. So he, as far as I can see is getting to be one of the bigger bowls in this space. And I do hear that he has quite a bit so I thought this was a good article from Yahoo Finance, which actually had a lot of good stuff along with Bloomberg for crypto news. So this was kind of a cool quote by him Tried to track prices, I can't predict any of this that stuff. What I would say what I can say is that we really do see a crypto spring right now, in terms of top tier engineers, product developers, designers building real solutions on top of the blockchain. And that, for me is the most interesting part. We're really starting to see, you know, top tier talent building on the infrastructure. I think that's really well said, if you look in the for at least for me, the best coders are in the space for a while they're in cryptocurrencies are in cyber security. Now that transition, and they may dabble in both, but almost every one of the most talented computer scientists are Middle East putting their toe into blockchain. So for him to identify that the top people and read it does have the top engineers and the top people that are there already and the top people go to the Reddit subgroups. So he really is qualified to speak on that. And then, you know, he goes into detail talk about john paul Tudor Jones and all these hedge fund guys that were really slow rolling the blockchain investments on their own funds. And you know, when they go into bitcoin or something like that, they go in hard and a lot of them are introduced by the Winklevoss twins, just because they're in that kind of network of the Manhattan elites of knowing about Wall Street and being well connected. So the fact that it's being sold by as he says, it's interesting to see Oh, geez of Wall Street. Now getting into crypto and buying Bitcoin. It's increasingly showing that it's here to stay. That's Well said, Oh, gee, you know, being original gangster which means person that's been in it for a while. So I like the movement that he's done in the space. And I look for him to continue to take a leadership role in the space So yeah, you know, when you're a top VC, you're married to one of the greatest tennis players of all time, and you're touting crypto, I'm going to follow you.
