Justin Ehrenhofer, the vice president of operations at Cake Wallet, is one of the most prominent Monero backers. He found the monero cryptocurrency, XMR, after developing an interest in cryptography and online data security, while growing up gay in the not-always-friendly Midwest. He’s one of the sharpest minds on Crypto Twitter regarding privacy, and is a board member for an organization that pays grants to people maintaining public payments systems.
