Welcome cloverme! That's really inspiring. I have always thought cryptocurrency was the future of microtransactions and in-game currency! It's can just be far more elegant than fiat. All the best for your project.

I am hugely interested in space exploration, by the way. Out of curiosity (pun intended), which projects did you work on at NASA?

Sort:  

Exactly, it's used in dice games exclusively and some of these sits have millions of dollars worth of crypto that have only been running for a couple of years. I think it's not only a great way to leverage crypto, but open it up outside of gambling.

I've always been deeply driven in aerospace and space exploration myself. I was super extremely lucky to be able to work for nasa over at JPL. Some of the projects that I was exposed to there were Cassini, Stardust, and the first mars rover :) My signature was added to a dvd that was put on the spacecraft and I think on a chip on Stardust as well. The public also had a chance to get their names added too, so it wasn't exclusive or anything, but still cool :D

That is so awesome! Would love to see you share more about your NASA days. :)
