I really got back into crypto earlier in 2021 after being away from the space for eight years because I was mad at myself for selling Bitcoin in 2013. Like a life-changing amount of Bitcoin. A life-changing amount? I bought 38 Bitcoin in 2013 at 100 each and sold them for 150 each. And at the peak before this recent crash, I think it was like $2.5 million worth of Bitcoin or something that I sold.

Oh, I would call that a life changing amount of Bitcoin.

Yeah. So it meant that I kind of stayed away from the space, and so I think I came into it with kind of a fresh perspective, writing more about other tech companies and business strategy and all of that type of stuff, and having operated in a very difficult business. I worked for a company called Bruder before.

So I think I came into it trying to say, all right, cool, crypto seems really interesting, and Web3 seems very, very interesting. What are the fundamentals here and how does this actually help you build a better product for customers and all of that as opposed to approaching it like a religion?
