Sam sat down to talk with Finance Magnates earlier today about his work with developing the global blockchain ecosystem, and much more. The interview was broadcast live and a video recording is available here:
As it is the hot topic of the day, we naturally could not avoid discussing the situation regarding Bitcoin Cash, which was created due to a fork in the blockchain yesterday. Sam holds a rather positive and business minded view of the new token, indicating that market demand should dictate if exchanges and other service providers should accept Bitcoin Cash, and not ideology.
Interestingly, he also said that there are already early indications that this is the case due to an influx of people interested in joining the cryptocurrency market due to the news of the split.
