“[There] are a lot of people trying to take advantage of the bubble,” said Duplessie during a sit-down interview with Cheddar.
Duplessie believes the cryptocurrency industry will continue to evolve from being dominated by programmers into a hub for visionaries.
“We’re seeing more legit entrepreneurs that really think about consumers,” he said. “[They] may not be able to code, but they have a really great vision for user interface and design.”
He also says start-ups that have already secured Series A or Series B funding are “considering ICOs” in the future.
“It only adds a greater value to the entire movement,” Duplessie said.
