@zer0hedge For decades Kodak was synonymous with anything to do with photography, and they were even a quite popular choice for video and audio cassettes in the 80s and 90s.
However, the drastic change that came with 21st century technology made them redundant or pushed them into oblivion and made them a pale shadow of what they once were..

While the announcement of them moving into crypto was good for its sagging share value, I'm very uncertain if this is a crypto that people want to invest into.. .. Crypto and blockchain have caught the fancy of mainstream companies and many are thinking of practically 'minting' some extra money by issuing coins via ICOs- it's so much easier than shares anyway (where you give part ownership of the company and have to cross so many hurdles to raise funds via an IPO because of gov regulations everywhere, for the right reason).
