If we don’t [crypto], China will pick it up, and China will have it. Most likely China, or someone else. China is very involved. It’s also not going anywhere. It’s amazing. It’s amazing. When I was in San Francisco I met a lot of people who–these people are the ones that believe that this industry is becoming a reality [for ].
If I put it to the side, then it will be taken up by another country. Most likely, China, as they are very advanced in this area. You have to think about it – what I’m looking for is the best thing for my country. We can’t just ignore it… I have done things such as NFTs, and other stuff. It was amazing to see that over 80% of all the payments were made in cryptocurrency. This was amazing. NFTs, as you may know, are very successful. It took us a year to sell out, but it was sold in a single day. All 45,000 cards were sold. The people asked me to make another. This is a spirit that’s incredible. Beautiful.
The thing that I noticed is the fact that almost everything, if not all of it, was being paid for in cryptocurrency. It opened my eyes. We have good groundwork. This is a newborn. Right now, it’s a baby. It’s a baby right now. So I’m confident that we will be successful. I have also gotten to meet people who are top of the line in their field .”
