It's never ever a dull day in crypto land lol I love the media because I don't take it serious, it's more like comedy to me.

If Microsoft is making moves to implement blockchain into an ID system, then that is one of the next big steps toward mass adoption. Large tech companies are coming to know to value that blockchain brings and can't deny but use it. @vlemon you are an incredible resource keeping us informed of current events. Keep rockin'.
