Wake Up Call (10.7.24): Kevin Jiang, CIO of Virgo Digital Asset Management Oct 07, 2024

Show notes

Wake Up Call is a weekly show that will be streamed live on LinkedIn every Monday morning. To catch the premier of each episode, follow Onramp’s LinkedIn page and add Wake Up Call events to your calendar. After the live premier on LinkedIn, we will distribute each episode across Onramp Media’s podcast channels and youtube page.

Wake Up Call aims to educate financial professionals on the merits of the bitcoin investment thesis, how this asset class represents both a threat to legacy financial service businesses and an opportunity to differentiate oneself to retain and attract new business.

Hosted by Mark Connors, Onramp’s Head of Global Macro Strategy, and Rich Kerr, Onramp’s President of Managed Wealth, this show seeks to provide financial professionals the “wake up call” they need, prompt them to have an open mind with respect to bitcoin, rethink their prior assumptions, become more educated on the topic, and learn from others who are already farther down this path.

Mark and Rich bring a combined 60+ years of experience across traditional markets and financial services, and will share their unique perspectives in how their peers and colleagues can approach the realm of bitcoin. Wake Up Call will feature guests from various backgrounds and industries, who will share their own journeys to bitcoin and how others can get up to speed.
