For my first interview as a journalist, I have chosen a controversial figure that people either love or hate. In an interview with CCN , Bryce sits with me and we discuss his past and future with surprising revelations including his plans for future blockchains.
Bryce Weiner is 41 years old and a Bitcoin and fintech industry veteran, launching his first public, permissionless block chain in 2013. Prior to working in the blockchain technology space, Bryce began his career in the FM radio industry as an afternoon drive-time disc jockey.
He has subsequently enjoyed a successful 15-year software engineering and development career for companies such as Thomson Reuters Healthcare and Scientific and Lockheed Martin Missile and Fire Control Systems.He has operated several small businesses, including a coffee house and technology consulting firm.
Bryce has been an outspoken member of the Bitcoin sector, speaking specifically to the ethical implications of the implementation of Bitcoin, blockchain technology, and smart contracts. His unique perspectives have earned him numerous speaking engagements, interviews, and mentions in publications such as the International Business Times and Business Insider. He often serves in the capacity of fact validation for industry publications and has provided expert certification of evidence for the prosecution of crimes involving Bitcoin in the UK.
He continues to develop software frameworks for Bitcoin and blockchain applications, both financial and non-financial, for such organizations as Morgan Stanley and the Recording Industry Association of America.
