In this episode, my guest, Nat Eliason, joins me to share his fascinating journey…
In 2021, Nat was unemployed with a baby on the way. He needed a way to quickly make as much money as possible, so he turned to the most promising “get rich quick” opportunity of the time: crypto.
By 2022, Nat was deeper inside the world of crypto than he’d ever imagined—with all its dramatic highs and devastating lows.
He was a self-taught programmer who now wrote code holding hundreds of millions of dollars of other people's money.
His crypto wallet was hacked, leaving him to watch helplessly as his funds were drained in a flurry of transactions.
He sold an NFT of an ape for two hundred grand—deciding when to sell based on a combination of gambling and aggressive speculation.
He became an influencer, speaking at conferences, and writing a weekly newsletter to tens of thousands of fans.
Best of all, Nat had amassed a small fortune.
Nat’s book, CRYPTO CONFIDENTIAL, is Nat's unfiltered, insider account of the hyperactive, hyper-speculative, hyper-addictive, nearly unregulated, completely insane world being built on the blockchain.
Along the way, Nat educates readers with informative asides for both beginning and advanced crypto investors alike—from the basics of blockchain and NFTs, to avoiding bad crypto actors and how to decide when to sell.
In this interview, we talk about:
- Getting rich, going broke, and getting scammed.
- Nat’s personal journey, and a peek at how the crypto-sausage gets made.
- How we can all be more educated participants during the next inevitable bull run.
- And more!
