Frankford Candy, which has been in business since 1947,
is hardly the first company to see opportunity in the rise of cryptocurrencies
Who can forgetLong Island Iced Tea Corp, thenon-alcoholic beverage company, that saw its shares rise six-fold after rebranding itself Long
Blockchain Corp (Nasdaq delisted the stock earlier this year because the company market capitalization was too low.) Or adult entertainment
platform CamSoda that unveiledBitCast,a product that let users pair their vibrator or other sex toy to align with their investments in

The price of bitcoin,which surpassed $20,000 in December before plummeting, now trades at about $6,240.
