Crypto has been always been likened to an echo chamber, where crypto-natives reinforce their beliefs over and over again with others on Twitter

 

Contrarian and long-term thinkers are rare, and today on Blockcrunch we have just the guest to talk about investing in frontiers that most crypto-natives have yet to pick up

 

Anirudh Pai, Partner at Dragonfly, shares with us:

• What it means to invest at the frontier

• Building an actual city with Praxis

• 2 overlooked verticals that are likely to take off in the future

 

Host: Jason Choi @mrjasonchoi . Not financial advice.
