Senator Bernie Moreno on how he first got into crypto and blockchain:
“I came to my first Consensus conference 14 years ago. So a long time ago.
It was, I joke, 150 misfits. Now there’s a lot more of us...
And in 2016, with a partner, I started a company that uses
blockchain as the underlying technology to make card titles digital. We launched that company. It’s been doing very, very well. I sold my shares in that company. Again, not to have conflicts of interest in the Senate, but the company is absolutely [going bananas].”
