Andrew Trabulsi (entrepreneur, consultant, and co-editor of Warlords, Inc.: Black Markets, Broken States, and the Rise of the Warlord Entrepreneur joins me to discuss Cryptocurrency investing. We look at how blockchain and cryptocurrency models have evolved since the introduction of Bitcoin. For those new to the technologies and markets we share the easiest way to get started, important things to consider before you do (security, risk, etc), and how we evaluate cryptocurrencies and the projects behind them. We haven’t covered everything you need to know in this episode but it’s a good place to start if you want to learn more about a fascinating, volatile, and transformational space.

Some of the projects and companies mentioned include CoinbaseStellarEthereumLitecoinRippleBitcoin, and CoinMarketCap.
