Prosperous: Investing in Common Sense
Investing seems impossible to understand in lay person terms. The whole subject feels as the realm of acronyms and over-complicated buzzwords. Nonetheless we believe there are ways to break it all down to digestible pieces upon which anyone can feel they can make their own decisions.
We discuss the world of investing and also crypto in a way you can understand and learn. Here we try to explain things in a simple way, rather than make us sound like geniuses.

The Last Boss: Institutional Money, Bitcoin, and Global Equilibrium Shifts
This podcast episode discusses the increasing institutional investment in Bitcoin, noting that these large entities have different and much longer timelines for evaluating assets compared to retail investors. It highlights structures and mechanisms being developed to make Bitcoin more palatable for institutions, such as investments in companies holding Bitcoin and the concept of Bitcoin-linked bonds, suggesting a potential move towards legitimizing Bitcoin as an asset class and a potential driver for price movement.
