They are a successful business in Australia, about to launch in the US. Hear from Blake Cassidy about how different the regulatory environment is in these two countries and how they learned to deal with that. Why perseverance is key and really the only thing that keeps you from failing. Why Ether and Bitcoin could serve as a hedge against other investments more subject to inflationary pressures. Blake shares how after university, when he didn’t want to work in a company and follow existing structures and hierarchies, fintech was an awesome place to be and to make your own rules. Why he says sitting on the fence doesn't do any good. Rather, making mistakes, making them quickly, and learning from them is the far better strategy.
