In this episode I talk with Jason Crowe, a business leader who has worked with iconic New Zealand product brands such as phil&teds, Garage Project, and Goodnature.
We discuss Jason’s time working in the banking world and his decision to leave it, as well as how he has come to understand Bitcoin and how it impacts business and finance.
Finally we talk about the proof of work of sports and how athletes and sports teams may be able to incorporate Bitcoin thinking into the way they fund and organise themselves, and our new search to find New Zealand’s top Bitcoin sportsperson.
