CRYPTO 101

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Min Teo, co-founder of Ethereal Ventures, shares how the firm spun out of the ConsenSys ecosystem after years of incubating, investing in, and co-building early crypto startups. She explains why crypto’s transparency, permissionless innovation, and global financial rails drew her from traditional finance and fintech into venture investing. The conversation covers Ethereal’s founder-first investment approach, why they focus on early-stage infrastructure and applications, and how they think about Ethereum, Solana, Hyperliquid, stablecoins, tokenization, and AI. Min also shares why stablecoins may still be underhyped, why AI crypto is promising but early, and why investors should build a system, focus on quality, and know when to take profits.Check Out Scribe: Scribe.how/CRYPTO101Check Out Webroot: https://www.webroot.com/crypto101Check out Quince: https://quince.com/CRYPTO101Check out Shopify: https://shopify.com/crypto101Check out Mars Men: https://mengotomars.comGet my #1 altcoin pick for this month.Get immediate access to my entire crypto portfolio for just $1.00 today!

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Paolo Ardoino, CTO of Bitfinex, shares the incredible journey of helping build one of crypto’s oldest surviving exchanges through hacks, market crashes, and multiple Bitcoin cycles. Paolo explains why Bitfinex eliminated trading fees, how tokenized securities could unlock capital access for emerging markets, and why Bitcoin remains the ultimate hedge against global instability. The conversation dives deep into Lightning Network scaling, AI agents transacting with Bitcoin, institutional adoption, and why self-custody still matters despite the rise of ETFs.
