Hey @arjunblj - just wanted to let you know that you got some stuff wrong about the CryptoPunks (). 1) It came before CryptoKitties, 2) Never raised any money and 3) won't be shutting down because it can't be shut down.

GE is working on a wind turbine that will be 853ft tall, produce enough electricity for 16,000 homes per turbine / 1 million homes from a full windfarm, and can produce energy 63% of the time (rivaling natural gas). Ready in 2021. Amazing.
