Jon Najarian left the coveted life of a professional football player to become a “nobody” in the trading pits, upheaving his world in an instant. Bit by bit, Najarian pushed through the tough challenges of the trading floor that molded him into a master of all markets. Recognizing crypto’s value proposition, he more recently shifted his focus to become an investor, trader, and commentator within this new market. Crypto is causing widespread concern among legacy investors, he believes, causing a slow but steady shift to a new age of scarce value.
