Throughout the history of civilization, there have been a handful of moments that changed the course of how we think about wealth and equality. The discovery of gold, the creation of paper money, mortgages, ATMs.

We re at the next of those moments right now, and there is no more exciting place to invest your creativity than directly at this intersection of technology and adventure.
