A: Mr. Brad Moynes, President of Bit-X Financial Corp.
The opportunity to develop technology that could make financial institutions including stock exchanges, broker-dealers,
banks, transfer agencies and the DTC more efficient and less costly to reporting issuers, investors and consumers would be considered by Wall Street as a really good thing. The fact that DNCT
(blockchain) technology has the potential to achieve this and that many of these institutions have already invested considerable capital into the technology at the fastest rate to date, suggests
that the turning point has already occurred. In addition, the recent announcement that the NYDFS has released the final version of its long-awaited regulatory framework for digital currency
companies shall provide clarity to the industry as a whole and ease concern regarding over-regulation and the threat of stifling growth and innovation.
