Welcome to another week of the Square 1 content series!
The podcast launch this week was recorded in February as Square 1 was just forming as a concept. We talk with Griff Green, who has been a crypto nomad for about a decade. Griff brings with him a wealth of stories and experiences describing some of the early events that shaped the crypto ecosystem (such as the DAO hack).
Learn about his experience, as well as his ongoing projects (links👇).

Some other FAQs on the I’ve been getting:
Q: Is now a good time to invest in crypto?
A: In general, timing for investments should be determined by your financial goals. Timing the market in the short term rarely ends well. Following a long term thesis on the other hand, generally results in compounding returns.
Q: A token has a partnership with a big well-known brand, is it worth investing in?
A: Understanding the value of token economies is incredibly nuanced and often requires understanding the ecosystem traction around the network. These systems are Open Source and Transparent, and are generally not built to expand the way organizations have in the past. Often, looking at the engagement in a token project’s discord server or community forum is more important than a partnership they announce.
Hope these answers are helpful as you continue exploring and getting involved in the ecosystem!
Best,
JD
