This channel is super underrated. I am glad I came across your channel.
This is one of the better interviews on startups and innovation out there. Brian is obviously a great entrepreneur/founder, but he comes off as a great person and human in this interview. I'm a big fan after watching this.

well you can see where they are in only a year, facing an SEC investigation for insider trading.
Brian is very sober and well-spoken. Need more voices like his in crypto.
this was such an awesome video to watch. Learned so much from you and brian. Please don't stop making videos Gary
people would not realize how perfectly timed this video is released. Bitcoin fell 30% in 3 hours; some great projects cut in half. It takes a believer to stay. Guys, time to think in utility from the coins u hold instead of fiat anymore.
