Chris Spadafora happened to work a sales job right above the original Bitcoin Center in NYC, long before Bitcoin hit the mainstream. A combination of luck, motivation and destiny landed Chris deep in the Bitcoin community, eventually leading to him to develop his own project in the DeFi space. With a passion for both Ethereum and Bitcoin, Chris extricated himself from the tribal crypto war and designed Badger DAO to connect the two largest cryptos in a cooperative manner. Scott Melker and Chris Spadafora further discussed working above the OG Bitcoin Center, professional bodybuilding, the life of a salesman, breaking a regimented routine, discovering true happiness on vacation, the 4-hour work week, building on Ethereum, designing a DAO, PayPal in the crypto space, food coins, charity poker, wrapped Bitcoin, a new financial system and more. --- VOYAGER This episode is brought to you by Voyager, your new favorite crypto broker.
