Google Co-Founder Has Started Mining Ether With His Son

The co-founder of Google, Sergey Brin, has started mining ether with his 10-year old son and is excited about the “Technological Renaissance” that is cryptocurrency. Unless you have been living under a stone for the past decade, Google has changed the way we search online, and now one of the forefathers of search engines is knighting cryptocurrency and is overflowing with his confidence for ethereum.

Sir Richard Branson hosted the fourth annual Blockchain Summit in Marrakech, Morocco in early July 2018 – which was by invite only. Sergey Brin was a member of a panel at the conference and discussed the future of blockchain technology in our everyday lives.

Brin said that he first became interested in blockchain technology when his son asked for a gaming PC.

Brin is the latest figure to express his enthusiasm for cryptocurrency, one of the buzziest topics in tech thanks in part to the rise of bitcoin (and its subsequent fall). While bitcoin has captured mainstream attention, celebrities and companies alike have attempted to launch their own versions of cryptocurrencies, with mixed results.
