Yesterday marked another inspiring moment for blockchain industry even though not in terms of value but publicity. The creator of Facebook Live who doubles as Mark Zuckerberg’s sister, Randi Zuckerberg, hosted CEO of top blockchain companies at the weekly tech business show on SiriusXM called Means Business.

Zuckerberg, in her first tweet, urged all and sundry to tune in to the channel and stay abreast. She said the whole talk would be centered on blockchain and her top guest were, Ripple’s SVP Asheesh Birla, Meltem Demirors of CoinShares, a crypto investment firm, and Alexander TapScott, a Canadian business author that focuses on blockchain.

Asheesh Birla was welcomed as the second guest of the event. Before questioning the Silicon Valley guest, the host made a brief introduction of him.

Birla said Ripple is making great progress in the industry by revolutionizing the way financial transactions are done across the border with the use of a digital asset.

SVP Birla said Ripple makes its payment technology a frictionless motion. He came clean that he’s really excited he joined Ripple, saying the company is involved in the internet wave. Birla said blockchain is an example of a technology that creates something out of nothing, and this thrills him.

Speaking further, Birla described Ripple as the Amazon of blockchain.

In a concluding statement, he said blockchain would be used to reshuffle the world, and the Asian territory would take the lead.

The first guest, Meltem Demirors, CoinShares’ Chief Strategy Officer (CSO), described Bitcoin as a means that gives everyone self-sovereignty and due rights.

“Until bitcoin, we had never really thought about why we value the U.S. dollar over the Rwandan dollar and what’s the difference between them. What is the reason that we pay exorbitant taxes?” Demirors said. “I went into a rabbit hole on Reddit and found that Bitcoin isn’t just about technology.”

The CSO at CoinShares said her company issues out the authoritative state of Bitcoin Mining, adding that an article highlighted how a New York-based company makes $50,000 dollars a day by using the additional capacity to mine bitcoin.

Demiror said at the moment, there are thousand crypto companies around the world, and she has a stake in 180.

Alexander TapScott also lauded blockchain in his statement, revealing that the technology goes beyond Bitcoin. Tapscott said he cofounded a Blockchain Research Institute with his dad.
