Andrew Yang on Leadership and Building in Bitcoin Bear Markets | Value Stack 19


Today’s guest is Andrew Yang.

Andrew and I talk about the recent crypto market blowup, the similarities in last cycle to this one, and where we think Bitcoin fits within a portfolio today.

We talk strategies of leadership, how to manage a team during a downtrun, keeping positivity in life, and the joys of cooking, learning, laughing, and pushing out of one’s comfort zone.
