Description

Joesph Kelly is the CEO of Unchained Capital — a bitcoin financial services company that offers services including trading, inheritance solutions, bitcoin-backed loans, and tax-advantaged bitcoin retirement accounts.
In this episode, Kelly explains how his firm managed to become "the last lender standing in the US market for bitcoin-backed loans," and how Unchained has experienced growth despite rising federal interest rates.
Earlier this year, Unchained raised $60 million in a Series B funding round led by Valor Equity Partners.
