In this episode, Eric explains why he put 50% of his business' cash sheet into bitcoin. This may seem like a bold move, but as he explains here, there are some great arguments for bitcoin's utility and safety, and plenty of successful people who are doing the same. This is not financial advice per se, but definitely worth thinking about in the current uncertainty of the US and the world.
