Resources Episode Highlights [03:12] Rob\u2019s Background
  • After high school, Rob became a combat medic in the military.
  • He went into home health management and then medical device sales at a company called KCI after he was discharged from the military.
  • Eventually, he started an online education platform for nurses and got into real estate.
  • His first exposure to crypto was in 2012, and he used dollar-cost averaging.
[09:53] Getting Into Bitcoin and the Crypto Space
  • You can\u2019t build wealth if you quit after making just a little money.
  • Inflation plays a large role in pushing people to consider alternative income streams such as bitcoin.
  • It\u2019s difficult to make more bitcoin because its value lies in its scarcity or finiteness.
  • Bitcoin is a decentralized technology.
[22:51] Investing in Uncertain Times
  • We\u2019re in for some bearish days and should expect that the traditional stock market will see a decline.
  • Rob predicts that because of fear, people will hold onto their cash and enter into what they consider risky assets.
  • Bitcoin may be volatile right now, but it will stabilize as time goes on.
  • Make sure you\u2019re making the right decision for you and your family.
[22:51] Investment Mentality and Strategy
  • Everybody has the mentality to invest, but not everyone has the stomach for it.
  • The most stable asset and most volatile market is bitcoin Ethereum.
  • Do research on the projects and companies you\u2019re interested in, determine whether you really want to invest in them, and only invest what you can afford to lose.
  • Don\u2019t put all your eggs in one basket.
[41:34] Volatility and Risk
  • Bitcoin is currently in price discovery mode.
  • Looking at the risk factor of the volatility, the time horizon can be different.
  • Volatility depends on the asset that you\u2019re investing in, so volatility is fine as long as you can stick out the time horizon.
[44:20] Crypto Regulations
  • Triage on cryptos will be needed to come up with regulations.
  • With stablecoins, if they\u2019re pegged to the dollar, determine the assets that they\u2019re pegged to and perform audits, however many months it takes.
  • Bitcoin that you lend out to institutional investors will be collateralized.
[53:48] Adoption Curve
  • There\u2019s already too much money in the crypto space and it\u2019s going to keep growing.

  • Bitcoin is now a base layer protocol where you can build on second layer solutions and make transactions built on the safest, computerized network in the world.
[1:07:39] CBDC vs. Crypto
  • If you have a centralized ledger, banks will have control over your account.
  • Crypto isn\u2019t for illicit transactions because every transaction is made on an open ledger.
  • CBDCs are not truly decentralized crypto.
7 Powerful Quotes

\u2018The value of Bitcoin lies in its scarcity.\u2019

\u2018The reality is, is that I believe we're in for some pretty bearish days. And I believe that the traditional stock market on Wall Street, we're going to see a pretty big decline with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ as it goes down.\u2019

\u2018In the short term right here, it's extremely important to make sure that you're making the right decision for you and your family.\u2019

\u2018Everybody has the mentality to invest. But the question is, do you have the stomach?\u2019

\u2018The basics are just like getting any investment: you take a look at the project or the company itself, and just go and just do as much research as you possibly can and go, do I want to invest into this, and I'm going to invest only what I can afford to lose.\u2019

\u2018If you take a look at at the risk factor of the of the volatility, there is, again, the time horizon that you look at could be a lot different.\u2019

\u2018People always complain about, oh, blockchain and crypto it's for illicit activities and things like that and drug smugglers. No, it's not. Because every transaction you do is on an open ledger.\u2019
