One year ago, I left my full-time job to pursue a dream of running my own business. Today, I wanted to reflect back on some of the lessons in entrepreneurship I've learned along the way.
I've experienced some ups, I've experienced a lot of downs, but luckily I'm still trucking along and here to tell the tale. I hope you enjoy, even if you're not someone with entrepreneurial dreams.

Goldman Sachs held a conference call for clients today on the "Implications of Current Policies for Inflation, Gold and Bitcoin" and turns out... Goldman Sachs ISN'T a fan of Bitcoin. Nope, not one bit. Turns out, its funny internet money comparable to tulips only used for crime... Let's talk about what it means for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency today.
Bobby also dives into a new shill (ducks) Thorchain ($RUNE) and why he thinks it could be a really interesting project if it works technically.

Bitcoin pumped to over $9,000 in the last 24 hours, as bulls rejoiced a strong bounce back from BTC's disastrous March fall to $3,800. Will the momentum continue into the Bitcoin halving?
Also, let's talk about UMA and their ICO, or perhaps more accurately, their Initial DEX Offering and how they used a UniSwap pool to launch their token. Could UMA's UniSwap launch be the start of a new industry trend, or just another blip on the radar.
Delphi Digital's research on the UMA/UniSwap launch (worth the read!): https://www.delphidigital.io/so/0bN749TgA?cid=f6481749-8b0a-4fe9-acfa-343aca976f6e#/main
