Stephen T. Major, the founder and director of operations at Extreme Expeditions Northwest, an outdoor adventure company that specializes in guided Bigfoot “research expeditions,” started his own cryptocurrency called Cryptid Coin to help fund his Bigfoot research and investigations. The token promises that people who purchase Cryptid Coin might be eligible to join a Bigfoot expedition or take part in one of Major’s film documentaries about Bigfoot. The Verge has also reached out to a few cryptocurrency enthusiasts on Twitter who use the word “crypto” in their usernames, asking if they are also interested in cryptozoology, finding Bigfoot, or the study of unknown animals.
