In 2019, Linktree is included in CNBC's 'Upstart 100' list of "brightest, most intriguing, young startups promising to become the great companies of tomorrow." In March 2020, Fast Company placed Linktree as fourth place in the 'Most Innovative Companies of 2020' list in the 'Social media' category for "making Instagram's "link in bio" into a sleek menu for sharing articles, merch, or paid partnerships." The place is once earned in 2018 by Reddit, in 2019 by Are.na, and in 2016 by Periscope.
With the increasing adoption of blockchain technology, the role of an accountant will change but not be eliminated. Think of mechanics. You still need the mechanic, but the mechanic will have new things to learn. The new technology will let accountants spend their time on the highest leveraged activities. Consider the role before Excel. People thought Excel would do our work for us, but it didn’t. But it is a better spreadsheet and made the job easier. Technology is changing at an exponential rate. Ignorance and apathy will put the slower movers at a disadvantage. It is expensive and it is complex, but if you don’t experiment with it, you will be in danger of falling behind. Now, remember when you first saw the internet? What about when you received a PC or a laptop? It is just another tool. It is a new tool that will change the role but not to make it obsolete. Those accountants who can embrace new technology, AI and blockchain will be well ahead of the game.
