Andy Tian, co-founder and CEO of Asia Innovations Group, discusses the "Forever Rose," the most valuable piece of virtual artwork in the world. The piece was purchased by 10 investors for $100,000 each using cryptocurrency. Tian explains the rose is a visual symbol of digital currency and its value can be tracked in real time. Money made from the sale of the Forever Rose will go to a charity that helps children learn to code. Tian says this is just the beginning of crypto-artwork. Tian explains "the rose token will live on the blockchain forever."
