Everipedia & Genius Co-Founder Mahbod Moghadam shares bold Bitcoin and crypto predictions for 2020 and beyond

In our interview, Moghadam shared his crypto origin story and gave us some bold crypto predictions for 2020 and beyond.

Mahbod Moghadam: Balaji Srinivasan - the most important man in crypto - told me to buy Bitcoin when he came to the rap genius office to ask me to ask Nas to make a diss track about gawker on behalf of Peter Thiel so he would invest in us.

I just heard about Celsius.network and I'm trying to learn more - definitely sounds cool! And perhaps most important, I'm still bullish on Libra and Zuck's crypto plans - NEVER DOUBT ZUCK! He understands the power of crypto better than any of the leaders in Silicon Valley.

Until someone like Zuck makes everyone have a crypto wallet, mass adoption with crypto is difficult.

I remember our talk of Bitcoin back in 2013 - Tom is a dinosaur! He used to work for a hedge fund before we built Genius so he is not into this whole crypto thing.

A big reason I got into crypto is I felt how it was missing from what I did at Genius.

What do you think of Jack Dorsey's pro-Bitcoin involvement with Square? Would the ultimate vision of his work be a Bitcoin Lightning network tipping feature on Twitter?

Bitcoin has the brand name, it is the mother of all cryptos - so it would be cool if Bitcoin could become the "Internet currency." But from what I've heard from developers, Lightning is not really working well.

Out of mainstream tech peeps the CEO of Twitter is considered the big crypto fan, and I mean like - come on - there is not nearly as much he can do as Zuck can.

Zuck is the one who brought the internet to everyone, I think he will also be the guy who gives everyone a crypto wallet.
