Dear Crypto Community and Blockchain Buddies across the globe, welcome back to our show! In this highlight episode, we are proud to present you with an EPIC interview with #Bitcoin pioneer: Dan Held, Growth lead at #Kraken.

Before Uber, Dan built some of the most popular early crypto products including ChangeTip (acquired by AirBnB), and ZeroBlock (acquired by Blockchain.com in the second-ever all Bitcoin acquisition). He was part of the original 2013 crypto meetup group in San Francisco which was comprised of the founders of #Coinbase, #Ripple, #Kraken, #Litecoin, and many more.
