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.

Goldman Sachs Hates Bitcoin
Wednesday May 27, 2020
Wednesday May 27, 2020
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 Pumps 10% and ICOs are Back?!
Thursday Apr 30, 2020
Thursday Apr 30, 2020
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

Wednesday Apr 22, 2020
Wednesday Apr 22, 2020
It seems like hack after hack has plagued the DeFi ecosystem, most recently with dForce's $25M. Is the beginning of the end of the DeFi hype or just a blip in the road?
Let's also chat about Ripple's lawsuit against YouTube and the general issues that are plaguing our dearly beloved video platform (plz don't ban me for talking about this).

Thursday Apr 16, 2020
Thursday Apr 16, 2020
The Bitcoin halving is coming up in less than 30 days. Is it going to be the massive bullish catalyst we've all been waiting for? A total flop? Or somewhere in between.
Let's also talk about the questionnaire that FTX has added to its exchange before any can trade their leveraged tokens (BULL, BEAR). Is it an unnecessary burden or helpful to educate your users?
Finally, we'll finish off with your Q&A on cryptocurrency/blockchain career opportunities!
