Diary of a Made Man Ian Balina shares his family’s journey from a Ugandan village to the crypto big time


Listen Later

Crypto giant Ian Balina is one generation away from a Ugandan village. Hear how he and his family worked their way from remote village to amazing success on this week’s Untold Stories, along with:

How death threats changed his point of view, why you should “burn your ships,” why low self-esteem creates the best salespeople, how taking responsibility and educating yourself is the surest path to freedom, how hard times separate your friends from the fakers, why it’s important to be “psychologically unemployable,” the craziest pitches he heard during the 2017 ICO stampede, his “I made it” moment, how he stayed free for a week at a 5-star NY hotel, how to live a decentralized life without getting burned out, and the number one red flag for a crypto project.
