Those emerging markets, obviously those are not institutions in those emerging markets.

The overall...

picture of crypto is that crypto is really a bottoms-up technology.

It's not a top-down technology.

It's not that, oh, you know, the government and the businesses and the Fortune 500 companies, they're all going to adopt crypto and that's why crypto is going to be big.

No, no, no, no.

It's almost never how disruptive technologies work.

Disruptive technologies get adopted from the bottoms-up.

If you think about the iPhone, the iPhone was not adopted by businesses, it was adopted by individuals.

It's adopted by people.

The reality is that you will be surprised how much the world changes when you allow people to see the value in these new technologies and adopt them bottoms up.

You've probably seen these stories of these grandmas in China setting up their open clause at these Tencent things.

This kind of stuff is exactly how new technologies get adopted.

People see the vision, they get excited, and they say, you know what?

I'm going to try it.

Same thing they did with... Why is it that 15% of Americans own crypto?

Everyone says, oh, crypto is so hard to use, so scary, so this, so that, and yet 15% of Americans own it.

This is because people see...

the vision of the future, and they want to pull it into the present.

It's always how it's been done.
