Things are looking up for New England's rising star!

  Not sure crypto-based business will be a real, lasting gain for the region.

    Of course it will. Hartford is the insurance capital of the world, and insurance is one of the biggest use cases for blockchain. Think of how many startups are going to get funded and then bought out by those companies and completely transform them.

  Do they actually still call it that? I recall thinking that was a terrible slogan 20+ years ago. At some point, it's not that the star you see is rising--it's a distant headlight on high beams to make up for the other one being busted.

    I don’t know really. My wife, who is from the region, is the only person I’ve heard call it that now that I think about it. I find it amusing though so now I do too.

  Haha who calls it this beyond politicians unfamiliar with Hartford’s history?
