My discussion with Dara Albright, recognized authority, thought provoker and frequent speaker on FinTech, crowdfinance, digital/crypto finance, next-gen IPOs & P2P and retail alternatives.

WYFT or What’s Your Focus Today!

Dara's second appearance on this show is beyond timely, and most insightful.

• Since 2011, Dara Albright has been helping set the direction of the crowdfinance industry through leading-edge industry articles and acclaimed conferences that introduce crowd-driven asset classes such as crowdfunding and p2p lending to the financial community.
• She produced the very first crowdfunding conference in January 2012 which was headlined by key JOBS Act architects: Congressman Patrick McHenry and Dave Weild. That event birthed the crowdfinance movement and led to the founding of the industry’s trade and leadership organizations.
• In 2013, she co-founded LendIt which went on to become the largest and most recognized global p2p & online lending conference organization.

In this episode, we talk about:

• * How blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are bringing us into a new era of more access to new products for a larger segment of the population;
• * The Token Taxonomy Act and its impact;
• * The 2 most attractive pieces of crypto (a must read/understand/listen to part!);
• * The one most important upcoming change in legislation re. retail investors;
• * Investor base diversification;
• * Asset tokenization;
• * How advisors and VC's are adapting and adjusting to this new situation;
• * The mango project?
• * and so more more being covered here ...

Enjoy this episode, share lavishly, and give me a great rating and/or review on any platform of your choice.
