According to TechFlow, Bryan Johnson, a technology entrepreneur and founder of the "Don't Die" anti-aging program, said in an interview with Cointelegraph at the TOKEN2049 conference that there are more connections between the longevity movement and Bitcoin.
Johnson believes that the two are developing on parallel tracks, and people interested in one will often pay attention to the other.
He noted: "Bitcoin fundamentally rejects inflation, and I fundamentally reject aging. We are basically rejecting this slow process of 'dying'." Johnson, 47, claims that through his self-directed project over the past three years, he has reversed his biological age by at least five years.
He also mentioned that technology developers tend to solve seemingly impossible problems, such as aging or peer-to-peer distributed cash systems.
It is worth noting that well-known figures in the cryptocurrency field, such as Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Agoric chief scientist Mark Miller, and early Bitcoin investor Roger Ver, have also shown great interest in life extension technology.
