Steve Wozniak, a computer scientist and programmer, who co-founded Apple with Steve Jobs, has endorsed cryptocurrency, saying crypto has “an awful lot of promise” through blockchain technology.
Talking to Yahoo! Finance, the programmer behind the first Apple computer said there’s some anonymity about Bitcoin and other crypto coins, but they are not controlled by a single entity as the US dollar.
Wozniak, popularly known as just ‘Woz’, said the financial system based on the US dollar is “like an artificial system” to him and not based on “science and math and logic and computer programming”.
In September, Wozniak had said he was setting up a private space company with Ripcord Co-Founder Alex Fielding and the new company would be “unlike the others”.
