He’s a former United States congressman and a candidate for President of the United States. He’s not been afraid to question the status quo, and he’s definitely not afraid of us.  He’s Dr. Ron Paul, and he’s a legend among the freedom-loving people of America. We’re thrilled that we got to spend 30 minutes with Dr. Paul and you aren’t going to want to miss a single beat of today’s interview. Also, we’ve got an origin story for you. It was early 2017 that I finally went down the crypto rabbit hole, which eventually brought us to where we are today.  You are going to meet Daven Michaels, the man who is responsible for providing me with the gentle push down the hole that I was cautiously gazing into.  Seated behind our cardboard microphones in the Republic of Bad Cryptopia, we welcome you to episode #382 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.  Full Show Notes at: http://badco.in/382 SUBSCRIBE, RATE, & REVIEW: Apple Podcast: http://badco.in/itunes Google Podcasts: http://badco.in/google Spotify: http://badco.in/spotify FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: @BadCrypto - @joelcomm - @teedubya Facebook:  /BadCrypto - /JoelComm - /teedubyaw Facebook Mastermind Group: /BadCrypto LinkedIn: /in/joelcomm - /in/teedubya Instagram: @BadCryptoPodcast Email: badcryptopodcast[at]gmail[dot]com Phone: SEVEN-OH-8-88FIVE- 90THIRTY DONATE CRYPTO TO THE SHOW:If you'd like to donate a bit of cryptocurrency to The Bad Crypto Podcast, feel free to send copious amounts to the following locations:  $BTC: Bitcoin: 3GMgCH4dFUHSLdrPnLwEsfKPVnLnoGbzGZ $ETH Ethereum: 0x1ccE8A04fa6743eD1D24cA063c7543D43B42F328 $LTC Litecoin: LavXqTWVHebEgVhBXdg3Hue3xEAmgtxLgr $DOGE Dogecoin:  DMngvNMX1U8Sg8PkDjCC3UTS8Mmn9RqTP5 DISCLAIMER:Do your own due diligence and research. Joel Comm and Travis Wright are NOT FINANCIAL ADVISORS.

Here in the Republic of Bad Cryptopia, we are on the front lines of non-fungible tokens. This method of creating digital assets that can be bought, sold and traded is truly one of blockchain’s killer apps. We recently had the pleasure of attending a conference in New York dedicated to NFTs, aptly titled NYC.NFT. Today’s show is like a symphony in 3 parts. First, you’ll meet Jay Casanno, the editor-in-chief for Coin Telegraph. We spoke with him at the event and you’ll find out what it’s like to be the go-to blockchain publication. Then, you’ll meet Andrew Prell of SilicaNexus. You know how you earn all those tickets at the arcade by playing games. And then you take those tickets to claim worthless prizes? What if you could use those ticket to claim NFTs for various video games instead? Yeah, that’s what we thought. Cool. And finally, we’ll introduce you to Devin Finzer, CEO of OpenSea.io, the crypto world’s largest marketplace for NFTs. We didn’t put the lime in the coconut, but we did put the fun in non-fungible on this NFT.NYC episode #380 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
