Our guest this week is Joost van der Plas, CEO and co-founder of Maven 11 Capital, a blockchain and digital asset investment firm. Joost co-founded Maven 11 in 2015 to build one of the first registered European Venture Capital Firms in the blockchain space out of Amsterdam.
As an early angel investor in Bitcoin, Ethereum and many other early-stage ventures, Joost built a portfolio of blockchain projects and realized a 13X multiple before launching Maven 11 Fund I. Today in a most uncertain and exciting market he and his partners are raising money for Fund II.
We discuss:
- Why bitcoin soared to an all-time high
- Why blockchain is important to business
- Whether blockchain will remove friction out of the global financial system
