I’ll start with the Mr. Obvious award. We’re in a bear. It’s a big growling grizzly and it’s got center stage. All markets have taken a beating and crypto has taken a serious beating.

If it were easy everyone would do it! Well, it seems (almost) everyone is doing it but it sure isn’t easy. I’m speaking of course about investing in the crypto markets. Far from doom and gloom in the middle of winter, however, we see opportunity in the midst of this market chaos and the learning

Conviction is a funny thing. It is required for success. Great entrepreneurs have it. One can agree or disagree with the platforms and ventures of the likes of Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Walt Disney, Bill Gates, Henry Ford and many others, but one thing is for sure, they had conviction. We’re now seeing that in
