Peter Smith is the CEO and Co-Founder of Blockchain.com, and he is a true crypto OG. He has been running Blockchain.com for over 10 years, which makes him one of the longest-standing CEOs in the crypto industry. In this episode, you will learn why Peter has been buying Bitcoin for under $100 and for $40,000, and will continue to do so, how Blockchain.com manages to survive major crypto contagions, and why we still haven’t seen institutional crypto adoption.
