We are painting a picture of cryptocurrency by hearing voices from a full spectrum. Today we add color to the ICO part of our painting.

Our next guest is creating a cryptocurrency. 

We hear from Chelsea Lam, the co-founder of Munchee, their new cryptocurrency is called MUNtoken. 

From Episode 6, some things to cover are “Why is this currency necessary?”, “What problem are you solving?”, “Why is this the best solution,” or "Why is the blockchain necessary.”

Todays’s guest Andrew Chapin, CEO and founder of Benja, is part of the ICO Governance Foundation. We’ve learned thus far that step one to buying cryptocurrency is buy bitcoin on coinbase. I’ve had multiple listeners ask me — well then what do I do next? One option is to buy some Altcoins.

I’ve booked some people for upcoming episodes who are launching their own ICOs. It’s up to you learn how to evaluate which, which leads us to the ICO Governance Foundation.

When I was 25 years old I had just returned from a year travelling in Asia and started working in Silicon Valley, before Google existed, when the hottest company around was Netscape—in today’s conversation with Usman Majeed we compare and contrast the dot com bubble of then and the valuations of cryptocurrencies.

He may have missed the boat with bitcoin, but he didn’t make that same mistake with ethereum and it’s landed him in great position, recently launching Mutual Coin Fund.

In part two, our guest, Brooks Jordan, brings up Amazon, and the internet of the 1990's, as a starting point. And then picks up where he left off: If bitcoin is like gold, then what of other cryptocurrencies? And what of the blockchain?

And then what could the blockchain do for the world besides be money. What's my carbon footprint? Can we record that in the blockchain? Does Carbon X require self reporting?

This is part 1 with Brooks Jordan, his current work and passion is about community. If you are new to crypto and have questions like, "How can a computer create a currency with value?", or simply "What is Money", Brooks offers a visionary perspective. 

So far we’ve put cryptocurrency into the context of banking

and opportunities and risks of making or losing money

But crypto is about much more than currency.

In part 2, we step into the deeper implications of blockchain technology.

In the last episode we learned from an expert how cryptocurrency is drastically different than the only banking system we know.

Today, we flip perspectives and hear from Anna Ariel, who bought her first crypto coin just six months ago.

This came in a dream. 

Anna drops SERIOUS knowledge — on wallets, exchanges, passcodes, seeds, alt coins...

If you are starting from zero, and are ready to dive in deep, this is the podcast for you.
