It was about four years ago when Mark Carnegie could have backed himself in. He’d been wondering about all the hype surrounding cryptocurrency.
He’d come across ethereum, digital infrastructure that would allow for digital transactions underpinned by its tokens, ether. At the time one coin was worth about $200. By the end of 2021, it was worth $6000. While the price has since halved, had Carnegie backed himself, he thinks he could have made $100 million.
