 Crypto and Web 3 are polarizing topics, but whether you love these technologies or hate them, it is obvious that there is a clear, ongoing, and strengthening connection between Web 3 and Longevity. Today, we have the latest example of that, as Cryptocurrency entrepreneur and diplomat Justin Sun has announced a new donation that is making waves in the Longevity community. The $51,000 donation that Justin Sun is making to the Longevity Prize follows on the heels of other large-scale donations and investments from crypto-entrepreneurs to the life extension community. The most notable examples may be donations to the Sun's Research Foundation that were spearheaded by people such as Vitalik Feudarin and Richard Hart, but Vitalik has also joined with fellow Web 3 developer Stefan George to support the Longevity Prize. As we covered in our previous episode on the launch of this initiative, the Longevity Prize is actually a series of prizes created to fund Longevity Science and the researchers behind it. Made possible by Vitedal, the Forsight Institute, the Methuselah Foundation, and Lifespan.io, the Longevity Prize presents an alternative to traditional research funding and intends to support projects related to improving the human lifespan that may have been otherwise overlooked. The Hypothesis Prize, which is currently underway until the end of 2022, encourages proposals and ideas for promising areas of future research. These efforts will be boosted with this new support from Justin Sun, or should I say, his Excellency Justin Sun, because he currently serves as Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Granada to the WTO. He is best known as the founder of Tron and famously placed a record-breaking $4.5 million bid to support charity to win a dinner with Warren Buffett in 2019. Discussing his recent donation, Justin says, Life is too short and have come to just accept it. Humans have solved some of the most challenging problems we can possibly imagine. Life is the most precious thing in this universe, and extending the average lifespan will change the world beyond our imagination. I am proud to support the Longevity Prize and what it stands for because I believe this initiative will definitely bring together the brightest minds to hack the aging code. I look forward to seeing more discoveries on Longevity. This exciting new funding joins a growing list of examples of crypto entrepreneurs and Web3 enthusiasts supporting the Longevity Movement, and it certainly won't be the last.
