Ever since Satoshi Nakamoto pseudonymously developed Bitcoin, the world of finance and FinTech hasn’t been the same. What was first looked down on, Bitcoin gained massive traction making everyone who owned it Millionaires and Billionaires.

While this is the story of Bitcoin, its underlying decentralized blockchain technology inspired Ethereum and many other blockchains known today.

To commemorate the coin that started it all and to celebrate the new era of the internet, the 3rd of January is celebrated as World Crypto Day. On this occasion, Zeeve invited Mr. Suveett Kalra to share his thoughts on the history and the future of cryptocurrency on Zeeve Twitter Tech Talk, and here are some points he shared, followed by the link to listen to the whole podcast.
