He’s the CEO of Samara Asset Group, an asset manager focusing on Bitcoin and the ecosystem.\nPatrick started in the Private Equity world and initially got hooked by the crypto and smart contract world. \nHe got introduced to Bitcoin by a friend a few years before that but never took it seriously. It all changed when he saw the Lightning Network come alive. \nFor the first time in Bitcoin’s history, he felt there was a possibility to issue assets on top of Bitcoin, which is why he got interested in digital assets in the first place. \nThis is when he pivoted and started focussing on supporting the Bitcoin ecosystem through his company, Samara Asset Group. These days, they support companies’ projects or host their events at conferences to get more builders on board. \nYou can follow Patrick on his Twitter: https://twitter.com/Patrick_Lowry_\nOr alternatively on his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-lowry-mba-cpa/\nYou can follow us on Twitter (@rabbitholetales), check out our website (https://rabbitholestories.co/), or send us an email (show@rabbitholestories.co)\n---\nTopics mentioned in the episode:\nProof of Words Podcast: https://www.proofofwords.io/\nSamara Asset Group Website: https://www.samara-ag.com/\nSamara Bitcoin Alpha Competition: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/bitcoin-magazine-pro-and-samara-asset-group-launch-bitcoin-alpha-competition\nSamara supports Bitcoin DADA in Africa: https://www.samara-ag.com/market-insights/samara-asset-group-donates-usd-10–000-in-btc-to-bitcoin-dada-to-support-bitcoin-education-for-women-in-afric\nSamara supports Brink with Bitcoin Core grant: https://www.samara-ag.com/market-insights/samara-asset-group-makes-a-donation-to-brink\nInvestment Strategies and Terms: https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/102714/whats-difference-between-alpha-and-beta.asp","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/8SBcju8lEOueyuXbiaVSzrb7b6GvULr4Oms5-p6YbEw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM3MDYwLzE3MDYz/Njc0NDEtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
