Ben Askren grew up on a wrestling mat where he discovered a unique style to defeat his opponent, called “The Funk.” It is this funky nature that eventually led Ben down a path to early Bitcoin adoption. Living up to his name, Ben has just recently agreed to return to the combat sports arena to defeat Jake Paul in a prizefight boxing match, reliving his championship days. 
 In this episode, Melker and Askren discuss a range of topics including:

Training for Jake Paul

Earning the nickname Ben “Funky” Askren

Learning to take profits

Diversifying out of crypto

Emotionally trading altcoins

Celebrity crypto boxing

The Funky Crypto Podcast
