His energy is contagious, and he isn\u2019t just talking about the technology, he\u2019s building with it.   Austin has an engineering background so he\u2019s understands blockchain from the code up.

I asked Austin what it takes to change the world.   \u201cI would say it takes a lot of courage, it takes a lot of willpower and longevity, because you have to stand the test of time\u201d   About the crypto community -   \u201cI've seen a lot of characters for sure in the industry, and a lot of inspiration and really powerful people that are coming together - thought leaders, people that are planning the future economies of the world, people that are thinking a lot further beyond what's in front of their face. So, I would say the crypto communities are very strong and vibrant, accepting, powerful, engaging.\u201d   Check out our affiliate links at speakingofcrypto.com\/earncrypto for some great ways to support the show.
