Erik Voorhees on Starting Your Financial Future with ShapeShift Jul 19, 2021

Show notes

Erik Voorhees joins us to discuss starting your financial future with ShapeShift.

Erik Voorhees is the CEO and Founder of ShapeShift, an international, non-custodial cryptocurrency platform. Voorhees is among the top-recognized serial crypto advocates and entrepreneurs, communicating the virtues of Bitcoin as one of the most important inventions ever created. Having been a featured guest on Bloomberg, Fox Business, CNBC, RT, BBC Radio, and numerous crypto industry events, Erik humbly suggests that there is no such thing as a “free market” when the institution of money itself is centrally planned and controlled.

Before founding ShapeShift, Voorhees was the creator of SatoshiDICE, which popularized the concept of provable fairness and was responsible for most of the world’s Bitcoin transactions in 2012 and 2013. Prior to that, Erik was Head of Marketing at BitInstant in NYC.

Principal Z on how the ntNFT will upend public schools Jul 15, 2021

Show notes

Today Principal Z gives his presentation from MCEX mainstage as he discusses media, capital, and public education: how the ntNFT will upend public schools.

Principal Z has been developing decentralized audio and video tools since 1999: first as a software engineer in Palo Alto, CA and nonprofit corporation co-founder (‘99 - ‘03), then as an award-winning physics/robotics teacher ('03-'09), and now as a turnaround principal and public speaker ('10-present). Creating curricula that integrated microphones, cameras and digital editing consistently produced breakthrough student outcomes.

In 2009 “Z” was selected to lead a school design team in New York City. After a delay in securing a new school building he brought his approach to an alternative school serving low-income students who had been unsuccessful at other high schools. The school was persistently low achieving (PLA/SINI) and scheduled for closure when he arrived.

Within 18 months the school was awarded “A” quality ratings and was pulled from the shut-down list. Seven consecutive years of skyrocketing student outcomes followed, along with widespread recognition for the digital-media-centered approach to school reform.

In 2020 Principal Z published Education in the Digital Age: How We Get There based on his seventeen years of experience bringing digital literacy to high-poverty public school communities. After having worked with hundreds of high-school-age students in the foster care system, the Zeimer Family themselves became foster parents in Central Harlem, New York City.

Damion Lupo on how to diversify your 401k into cryptocurrency and real estate with eQRP Jul 12, 2021

Show notes

Today Damion Lupo joins us to discuss how to diversify your 401k into cryptocurrency and real estate with eQRP.

Damion Lupo’s mission is simple: to free a million people from financial bondage. His unique tool is a fusion of financial literacy and a little-known strategy called the eQRP® that allows investors to control their retirement money and get off the wall street roller coaster.

He’s the Best-Selling Author of 12 books on personal finance, investment, and retirement planning. He hosts the Financial Underdogs podcast, has owned more than 50 companies, and is the founder of his own martial art, Yokido®.

Damion is the Chief Honey Badger at the eQRP Co. and the lead architect of the eQRP® -- the Ferrari of 401(k)s®. The eQRP® is a unique and powerful system to put individuals in command of their own investments and breaking that money out of the Wall Street Jail.

Damion is also a professional investor with decades of real-world experience that started with purchasing his first rental using a VISA card advance -- a move that snowballed into 150 rental houses in less than five years. In 2008 he lost the whole $20 million business to bounce back and recreate his wealth in 5 years.
