Teen Genius Smarter Than Einstein Asked Santa For Crypto
A 12-year old boy from Britain had asked his parents for two things this Christmas: an IQ test from Mensa and some crypto. Acknowledging the sheer genius ability of their son Barnaby Swinburn for all things mathematics and general knowledge, they obliged and contacted the organization for the highly intelligent to test their child.
Barnaby scored 162 in the test, the highest possible score for under-18s, and 2 points more than Albert Einstein at the same age.
Looking at the markets
His mother Ghislaine said:
I knew he was smart, but he decided that he wanted to understand himself more, that’s why he booked it.
Although he’s only 12 years old, Barnaby’s fondness for math also means he’s been watching stock and crypto markets. For Christmas, he also asked his family members for some crypto coins, as he expects these to go up.
His mother Ghislaine explained:
He’s been watching the markets. He’ll be getting an envelope with money in it for Christmas which he’ll turn into cryptocurrency.
If only we knew which coins he’s buying of course.
Furthermore, looks like the young kid could even develop his own blockchain project one day, as his parents also told the local paper that:
He wants to become a programmer. He’s already looking at university courses, and he wants to go to Oxford.
