A Quote by Brock Pierce

Every smart person that I admire in the world, and those I semi-fear, is focused on this concept of crypto for a reason. They understand that this is the driving force of the fourth industrial revolution: steam engine, electricity, then the microchip - blockchain and crypto is the fourth.
The blockchain concept was pioneered within the context of crypto-currency Bitcoin, but engineers have imagined many other ways for distributed ledger technology to streamline the world. Stock exchanges and big banks, for example, are looking at blockchain-type systems as trading settlement platforms.
Blockchain Capital was the first dedicated venture fund to invest in crypto and blockchain.
As I was looking around, to me, what was happening in the blockchain and crypto world was a movement.
I don't. We've had three technological revolutions that have changed the course of human history, all driven by physics. In the first, the industrial revolution, physicists developed Newtonian mechanics and thermodynamics, which gave us the steam engine and machine power. The second technological revolution was the electricity revolution. That gave us radio, television, and telecommunications. Then, physicists developed the laser and the transistor.
I was an active participant in India's key economic reforms, including the third industrial revolution and now the fourth industrial revolution.
Technology is the future, I have seen the third industrial revolution, and we are in the midst of the fourth industrial revolution.
In 2017, people have realized there isn't going to be one crypto to rule them all. You're seeing vertical solutions where XRP is focused on payment problems, Ethereum is focused on smart contracts, and increasingly, bitcoin is a store of value. Those aren't competitive. In fact, I want bitcoin and Ethereum to be successful.
As a technologist, I see how AI and the fourth industrial revolution will impact every aspect of people's lives.
Fourth industrial revolution is a deadly combination of technology and Internet of Things.
Activists need to educate themselves about the power of crypto currencies like Bitcoin, invented in 2009, and use crypto to leverage the success of their independent media gains to tip the balance of power away from the troika in ways that could never happen by backing a political candidate.
For our part, Africa will make a significant contribution to the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and nuclear power: the will.
My government has taken significant measures to enable the rise of the Fourth Industrial Revolution in our country.
For all the opportunities that arise from the Fourth Industrial Revolution - and there are many - it does not come without risks. Perhaps one of the greatest is that the changes will exacerbate inequalities. And as we all know, a more unequal world is a less stable one.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution does not just entail risks: it also brings solutions to humanitarian problems.
National boundaries these days are not that important because of transformative technological development. Now we are talking about the fourth industrial revolution.
