Acclaimed investor and new technology advocate Mark Yusko explains “the time is now” for Catholic leaders to boldly explore the new technologies of blockchain and crypto. Mark compares current technological opportunities with the parable of the talents, explaining that Catholic leaders and all fiduciaries are charged with bearing fruit. He then draws analogies to the printing press and the internet, explaining how, respectively, they broke the mold of education and communication in the Middle Ages and the monopoly of the Big Three television networks in the 1990s. Discover the opportunity blockchain offers to immutably lock down and transmit truth. Point by point, Mark explains how technological innovation offers exponential reward as opposed to risk, while amplifying all forms of traditional investment. Surely, this is an exciting time to be Catholic; we have a unique opportunity to use modern tools to affect the trajectory of society and abet the Church’s mission to bring more souls to Christ.
