It’s a lot of work, we have ups and do-
wns, and sometimes you’re fatigued,
sometimes you’re tired. But, you have
to continue because, you believe in your
mission and you believe in what your
message implicates, and what is going
to be the impact on society.
We have to continue to encourage one
another to bring this positive message to
the world, both us as foundation protocols
and, its not only about Pillar, there are
some fantastic projects out there.
Our friends, the RADIX Foundation, the
NEM Foundation, and many others that
are truly changing the world together
with us, all have to collaborate with the
content providers, with companies such
as yourself, for example making videos,
educating the 99 percent of the people
that are out there.
It’s about them, it’s not about us.
As soon as we understand that it’s about
them and it’s not about us, we have won.
VoB: We used to say it’s a mission when
people asked us, „why is it a mission befo-
re business”?
Sure, it’s a business because, without
money it’s difficult to make change or
propose new ideas.
That’s also the reason why I am so
enthusiastic about ICO tokenization and
so on because, it’s really a new way to have
everything we need in our society and,
money is a part of truly realising it.
Realise a dream, realise an idea, realize
whatever we want.
We are used to going to the bank to ask
for money and, as the banker’s paradigm
is something else, they will tell you, „No,
that’s not a business model, it won’t work”.
Yes, it works. The proof is your project, for
example, and there are many projects like
yours.
So, it changes the way we create a business
or a business ecosystem, even if it’s with
a foundation. Maybe, if we all work toge-
ther, we can make something huge. Let’s
share ideas, communicate our ideas, and
not get hung up on them being stolen. It’s
about the open-sourcing of ideas. Take it,
because I can’t realize all my ideas. I have
a lot of ideas, and if someone takes one,
I’m very proud to have contributed some-
thing.
We are often too closed in our society and
community.
Everyday,I’m like a child, „Wow!”, „Wow!”,
when I see how the world is changing.
Tomer: The next 15-20 years are going to
be radically different, and the pace of
acceleration is going to be absolutely asto-
nishing. I want to come back to something
that you said in the beginning about ICOs.
We’re very excited about ICOs, and about this
new direction.
We believe that, if done properly it’s probably
going to be the biggest invention in modern
capitalism.
But, it has to be responsible.
There are a lot of scams out there.
But, it has to be responsible.
Right?
So,we must continue tirelessly, and belie-
ve that our message is heard, even if we
don’t hear the echo.
Someone hears it.
So, that’s what we’re doing, all the time.
