Honestly a very honest episode, tbh
-
Best guest/host since the inception of uponly it was good to see all of Jordan’s insights what a smart guy! I enjoyed listening to this thanks for sharing years of knowledge also thank you Brian for all you do as well!!!
-
FTX thank you for sponsoring the show!

$500 total invested, Cobie’s possibly the top few greatest investment careers of all time ROI% and total in Vs. net worth🤯🥳
-
Tbh he has been a great source of inspiration for me, as much as he likes to dumb down what he did, he was smart enough to adapt and find his own way to the top. Been waiting for this since UpOnly was conceived tbh
-
If someone's not been through the entire 10 year journey in crypto already, this is the episode to listen to. The amount of learnings and alpha that Cobie shares is mind boggling. Keep doing what you guys are doing, the value of this will truly stand out even years later.

Cobie is the king of this whole fucking crypto Twitter movement that makes every other form of entertainment seem lackluster. Long live this brilliant hysterical human being, Cobie!

Is it me OR is this the BEST vid I've heard
-
This was so good, like listening to a Christmas Lecture for degens
-
Good talk. Regarding L2s: Cobie, early in this episode you talked about how you fudded yourself on Eth because, although you appreciated the long term goals of the chain, you saw how poor it was in the beginning. I think you're doing exactly the same thing now when talking about L2s. The emergence of zkRollups and their work towards generalized zkEVMs is very transparent and they are clearly the fix to the current scaling issue. Just because at this point in time they're not at a point where we can resolve the issue, it doesn't mean they're not the right answer. It's just early.
-
