I certainly share his enthusiasm. I've often compared bitcoin to like the birth of computers or the internet or even big companies like Apple and Microsoft. They all changed the world and those who invested in early reaped the rewards later on. Bitcoin obviously isn't a company and needs both computers and the internet to work, but I see it as like the next best technological advance, or at the very least the future or even evolution of money.

Feels so good when someone like Woz validates what crypto enthusiasts believe. Though he has also expressed skeptical views about blockchain in the past, this was refreshing to read  Smiley.

Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple along with Steve Jobs, recently announced his participation in a crypto startup. During the interview, Mr. Wozniak (Woz) also spoke about cryptocurrencies and why he is excited about their prospects for the future.

Apple’s Wozniak is Very Excited About Cryptocurrencies and their Future

“I like to keep up with things,” Steve Wozniak, 68, famed computer engineer and co-founder of Apple explained at the Chainxchange blockchain convention recently in an interview. “Bitcoin caught my attention. It had so many unusual aspects for any technology I had ever heard of. Nobody is really known to be the creator. It doesn’t have any centralized [component]. It’s based on mathematics. There’s a certain number of Bitcoin that can ever exist.”

Woz is best known in computer history lore as the right hand man to business visionary Steve Jobs. The two founded Apple, presently the most valuable company in human history, in 1976. Mr. Jobs handled the entrepreneurial aspects such as financing, Woz was the brains, building personal computing revelations, ushering in an industry that literally changed everything.  

“Mathematics to me is like nature,” Woz continued in his admiration for Bitcoin. “It’s much better than human beings… I trust those things of nature more than what man makes up. Man makes up currencies, controls them, issues new US dollars every year; Bitcoin was immune to that.”
