Patricio Worthalter grew up in Argentina, where he was familiar with trustless systems, and in 2014 a customer of his had to pay a hacker in Bitcoin. This led Patricio buying his first Bitcoin where he learned of the power of blochain technology. He then made a risky bet on Ethereum, buying $10,000 worth, and in 2018 he founded POAP, a platform for consumer design interpretation based on Ethereum.
"Taking a crazy bet with minimal knowledge can be a risk worth taking if you are desperate for change." - Patricio Worthalter
