This is not financial advice. Nothing said on the show should be considered financial advice. This is just the opinions of Brad Nickel, Joe Cawley, and our guests. None of us are financial advisors. Trading, participating, yield farming, liquidity pools, and all of DeFi and crypto is high risk and dangerous. If you decide to participate, do your own research. Never count on the research of others. We don't know what we are talking about and you can lose all your money. Never invest more than you can afford to lose, because you probably will lose it all.

Tally Ho is an open source wallet and soon DAO to make wallets safer, easier to use and more powerful, while eliminating our centralized dependence on other wallet companies.

I met Reggie because his firm Ghaf Capital invested in my client Walken in the Move2Earn space & I was thoroughly impressed with how they supported a portfolio project & then I discovered that Reggie is also CEO of Gather which is making ethical & low resource consumption browser-based mining on their own Layer 1 chain to help websites and apps earn more and eliminate advertising. 

We discuss what it is like to have to overcome the negative stereotypes of previous players in the browser mining space, how their model is different and what is was like starting in a previous bear market. 

Then we get to know how Ghaf Capital operates and what it is like being a VC in the crypto space and working hard to bring more value to their investments.
