Google’s co-founder Sergey Brin made the surprise revelation that he is an Ethereum (ETH) miner at the Blockchain Summit in Morocco Sunday.

Brin is currently the president of Alphabet, Google’s parent company which formed as part of the tech giant’s restructuring back in 2015, but his “side hustle” is apparently mining the world’s second largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum, together with his 10-year old son.

Why should this be news? It seems like our crypto news channels are pulling bag of celebrities, CEOs, big economists, every time some important person talks about crypto is enough to become headline on all crypto news channels. this is reason that many people who call themselves experts of great funds are making prediction of high prices and end up inducing other people to the error. we saw last year between August and December, so many "experts" make price prediction and today not even 10% of these predictions have come true

Most of it is just clickbait.

But I do think Sergey Brin might be seen as more of a visionary than most of those celebrities, economists, etc. after founding Google. He seems legitimately fascinated by various cryptocurrencies and like Tim Draper (another tech/VC visionary), he thinks they'll be heavily integrated into society.

To be honest, I'm pretty interested in the opinions of tech people who have a knack for social trends. Price predictions are a dime a dozen, though.
