    Interview: Civic CEO Vinny Lingham

    By
    Vinny Lingham
    [dropcap]S[/dropcap]outh African Internet entrepreneur Vinny Lingham chats in this podcast to Duncan McLeod about Civic, his new blockchain-based identity management start-up that allows users to protect and authorise the use of their identity in real time.
    Lingham, who is well known to South Africans for his involvement with the television series Dragon’s Den and Shark Tank on M-Net, talks about how the idea for Civic came about and why he thinks it’s fundamentally necessary, and groundbreaking.
    He also talks about the company’s initial coin offering, or ICO, and how it works exactly.
    Lingham gives his views on the price of bitcoin (is it going to soar even higher, or is it about to crash?) and the South African economy and technology scene from a global perspective.
