About Bill Barhydt

Bill’s passion is information technology and how it can be used to improve people’s lives. Prior to Abra, he co-founded Boom Financial, where he also serves as Chairman. He gave the first TED talk on Bitcoin in 2012, and serves as an advisor and mentor to Boost.VC, a Bitcoin-focused incubator fund. Bill won the Technology Pioneer Award from the World Economic Forum in 2000 for his work at WebSentric, the first online meeting service that required no software install, and has consulted to federal and international regulators on the impact of digital currencies and decentralized transaction systems. In addition to co-founding and advising multiple start-ups, including m-Via, Sennari, Plaxo and KnowNow, Bill worked for Goldman Sachs, NASA and the CIA.

Abra is arguably one of the best next-generation investment apps in the market today. It is available in over 150 countries and enables users to start with as little as five dollars. The app makes investing in crypto and other asset class accessible to (almost) anyone across the globe with an internet connection.

Abra allows you to invest in stocks, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies so that you can build a diversified portfolio of traditional and digital assets. Currently, Abra supports over 75 cryptoassets, including bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), litecoin (LTC), and EOS (EOS). The amount and kinds of cryptoassets available, however, are dependent on your country and/or jurisdiction.
