Kodak today surprised the financial and photographic world by announcing KodakCoin, a “photo-centric” cryptocurrency, and KodakOne, an image-licensing platform that they claim will give photographers a new revenue stream and secure platform for protecting their creative work. The imaging company’s stock value jumped over 117% on the news.
Well that’s one way to boost your stock.
I honestly thought this was a joke when it first popped up in my Twitter feed.
