Cryptid Coin & Cryptid Tank's First Researcher Tom Sewid joined Encounters USA to talk about the upcoming hit show and Crytpid Crypto. Tom Sewid is a famous for his research and his story telling. A first nations member of Kwa-waki-wak tribe, Tom uses his fantastic story telling skills to explain his encounters and those of his ancestors with the Sasquatch. In this interview, the first ever designed to introduce cryptid research grant applicants to their prospective audiences when they appear on Crytpid Tank. The premise behind the Cryptid Tank show is to fund eligible researchers and research with funding from a fixed percentage of money set aside from the sale of Cryptid Coins. Researchers will have to defend their proposals in front of a panel of three no nonsense judges. These judges will ultimately decide if the proposal is realistic and fundable or if it should get gonged out of existence by the judges.
