 Call it vengeance against the Zuckerbergs, or promise for the spotlight, but the Winklevoss Twins are back and they are highly invested in digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. These are the guys who came up with the idea of Facebook before Mark Zuckerberg stole it from them while attending Harvard and ran with it. You can see how this is dramatized in the movie "The Social Network." Well they are back and they run the biggest virtual currency exchange in New York. They're very close to getting approval to sell ETFs which will track Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. and open up mass adoption and awareness of the cryptoverse.

They seem like the country-club traditional banking , old money type of guys who want to in a way control the crypto world or at least take a big chunk of it. That's not grounded in anything of course but just wanted to share my feeling on it. What do you think?
