Comprehensive Overview of Bitcoin and Venture Capital Discussion
A Bitcoin Equities Podcast Episode
In Episode Thirty-Seven of "Bitcoin Equities Talks," I had the pleasure of interviewing Eric Yakes, Founder of Epoch VC, who shared his insights into Bitcoin's potential for growth and the venture capital opportunities within its ecosystem.
We discussed Bitcoin's current status as a $1.2 trillion asset, its future prospects, and how early-stage investments in Bitcoin-related companies could yield significant returns.
Yakes also introduced the idea of Bitcoin's "seventh property" – immutability – as a game-changer in monetary systems.
His fund, Epoch VC, focuses on early-stage companies leveraging Bitcoin's unique properties to capitalize on this evolving market.
