Vik Sharma, believes cryptocurrency must remain permissionless, self-custodial, and truly connected to the blockchain, empowering people rather than surveillance companies. His mission is to make crypto accessible, human, and private for everyone, guided by the idea that the will of the people ultimately wins out.
