For the first time in history, value can be sent anywhere in the world at the same speed as information, in a secure and trust-minimized way. A departure from conventional economic, political, and social systems run by a handful of large centralized institutions, digital currencies are powered by millions of peers within a globally distributed network, democratizing information and value in incredible new ways.

We believe digital currency is at an inflection point, making it the right time for a transition to more institutional management.

You know, a younger generation, Bitcoin is social money. And with PayPal and Square and, you know, all these apps where you can now buy and sell Bitcoin on it, it’s just you’re seeing the supply get sucked out. PayPal and Square alone are selling more Bitcoin than all the miners combined each day. And so there’s just no supply.
