Hi Reddit!
Daily visitor here & someone suggested I do an AMA
Happy to answer any questions - the topics I know a little about are crypto/ the people and community / financial advise / token securities
My background:
I was a stockbroker / asset manager for 20 years starting in 1992 at age 19 when I became a broker at Dean Witter (later Morgan Stanley)
Got into crypto in 2012 - investor in Eth crowdsale, seed round of Shapeshift, seed round of BlockOne, later investor in Abra and others
Currently serve on the Board of Directors for Medici Ventures (owner of tZero and subsidiary of Overstock)
Founded Atlantic Financial - the internet’s first full service investment firm — a retail investment co which has done over $5 billion in transactions
Served as an advisor to large organizations like Bain Capital and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (before crypto/ my opinions are not theirs)
Owner of Chainstone Labs, a company focused on tokenized securities
Created Spacesuitx - an open source method to evaluate digital assets - check it out it’s free for you to use
Former Executive Director (2013) & current Board Member of the Bitcoin Foundation, the industry’s oldest non profit advocacy org
Host of the Satoshi Roundtable, an invite only industry event limited to 200 people: past attendees include Vitalik Buterin, Adam Back, Roger Ver, Charlie Lee, Elizabeth Stark, Brian Armstrong, Fluffypony, Brock Pierce and the CEOs of Blockone, Bitfury, BTCC, Bitpay and dozens of other top investors & companies
Host of Free State Blockchain Digital Assets Conference - which is a NH crypto event every October
Working on a book called Blockchain: Truth’s Crucible
Also working hard** on the Ravencoin project **
and building a hacker environmental retreat on a New England farm
Coins I follow: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, ETH, ETC, Eos, Ada, RVN, Dash, Litecoin, Monero, Zcash — a few others —* I don’t follow many others so wont have opinions on most ICOs* - but I can definitely give opinions on the industry and big picture trends.
I’m not the smartest person in Crypto but I definitely have had a front row seat to history and it’s been a thrill and fun.
AMA!
EDIT: I’ll take off for now - thanks, this was fun!
