Ted Farnsworth, Chairman and Co-Founder Appoints Crypto and NFT Icon to Lead ZASH, Media and Entertainment Holding Company

SYRACUSE, N.Y., July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ZASH Global Media and Entertainment ("ZASH"), a multifaceted media and content technologies holding company, today announced the appointment of  Erik Finman as its Chief Executive Officer.

A celebrated and highly successful crypto expert, Finman will assume direct oversight of the expanding crypto and NFT initiatives for ZASH. Beyond Web 3.0 businesses, the ZASH multimedia ecosystem encompasses film, TV, digital and social divisions.

Since launching in early 2021, ZASH has been aggressive in making strategic moves in the media and entertainment industry, creating exciting acceleration and growth in live-streaming content, video-sharing, distribution and production within its own ecosystem.

Erik Finman is the youngest bitcoin millionaire, as well as a successful entrepreneur and investor featured in Forbes, CNBC, VentureBeat, CoinTelegraph, and many more. At 12 years old Erik made his first crypto investment. At age 15, Erik dropped out of high school, and moved to San Francisco to start Botangle, an education startup that provides a better alternative to the educational system that Finman left, he later sold the company. Erik launched a satellite into space, which later became the ZASH satellite that dropped the world's first NFT from space with Snoop Dogg and Grimes at EDC Las Vegas 2022. Prior to that, he used that satellite to complete a "crypto space drop" to a school in Ghana, meaning he beamed Bitcoin down from a constellation of satellites in outer space to an antenna at the school. Finman also created a Dr. Octopus suit that works as a prosthetic prototype.

"Erik is a well-known veteran in the crypto and NFT space, who is often called upon to speak as an expert in that field, and we are extremely fortunate to have landed him in the role of CEO for ZASH," said Ted Farnsworth.  "Erik's leadership will allow us to expand in the Web 3 space which I'm very excited for what the future holds."
