Bitcoin, the oldest cryptocurrency, on Monday blew past $67,000 for the first time, hitting $67,523.28 in recent trading. The markets have been in a bull mode since the beginning of the October, as the crypto market in total has added nearly $1 trillion to its total value in just a month. Mastercard has formed partnerships with digital asset service companies Amber Group, Bitkub and CoinJar in order to allow consumers and businesses across Asia Pacific to obtain crypto-linked Mastercard credit, debit and prepaid cards, the company said in a statement Monday. Incoming New York City Mayor Eric Adams said on Thursday that he will take his first three paychecks in bitcoin when he takes office in January. The U.S. House of Representatives voted to pass a bipartisan infrastructure bill that contains a controversial cryptocurrency tax reporting requirement. The House voted in favor of the bill with at least 218 ayes late Friday night, fulfilling a key priority for the Biden administration amid controversy over whether an accompanying Democrat-led bill would also move forward. The Senate originally passed the bill in August after lawmakers shot down any attempts at amending the crypto provision.

Our guest this week is Asher Tan, the co-founder and CEO of CoinJar.About AsherIn 2013, tired of being on the sidelines as an analyst (providing analysis to leading business magazines on company financial performance and the wider economy), he saw an opportunity to unite his passion for finance and technology, establishing what became CoinJar today, a range of fintech products including a wallet, trading platform, and CoinJar Swipe, a cryptocurrency debit card. CoinJar is a web and mobile apps company that focuses on empowering anyone to buy, sell, send, receive and accept bitcoin as money. They have processed more than $1 billion worth of exchange transactions for hundreds of thousands of users. Asher moved to London leaving behind his co-founder Ryan Zhou in charge of the day-to-day running of CoinJar, and its 400,000 customers to see and understand what’s been brewing in the crypto world on the western side. Since then he has been attending conferences, meeting fintech companies, bankers, venture capitalists, and the like, and asking lots of questions.Join the Inspired Evolution Community:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/InspiredEvolution/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/InspiredEvo/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/InspiredEvolution/Website: https://inspiredevolution.com/In this Episode We Canvas:Bitcoin DemystifiedBitcoin has special qualities that make it a good type of money including the fact that it’s not controlled by any one government or organization. It’s decentralized and digital money and it caught Asher’s attention because of that. The fact that cryptocurrencies are unregulated has been a widespread concern among potential investors because they feel insecure about putting their money in it. “It’s a new way of thinking about money” - Asher Tan The Need that Digital Currencies ServeAsher feels it’s difficult to pinpoint the exact emotions that the people behind blockchain (the technology that cryptocurrencies are built on) because they are unknown, but he says that the initial motivation for creating the technology was an unhappiness with the financial system and the current ways that money works. The current monetary systems are said to be failing in meeting people’s expectations the way they should be in this day and age. “Before, there wasn’t really any alternative, and right now there is an alternative” - Asher Tan The Present Versus the PastAsher says that it's very difficult to draw parallels for what the future of cryptocurrencies is because things have never turned out the way they thought they would in the seven years that they’ve been in the space. Even traditionally tech-savvy investors and accrued up people have dissenting opinions of Bitcoin and digital currencies. “The future can be a bit of a wild and crazy place” - Asher TanHow Asher Got into Blockchain and BitcoinHe worked as an analyst before starting CoinJar. He always wanted to do something more beyond his analyst role, but his job was restricting him. He came across news about his co-founder (Ryan) who had just sold his company at a young age, and he decided to approach him to learn from him on how to start a company and make it successful. He entered a startup incubator with a friend and in the end they changed their startup idea into a Bitcoin-based one, and Asher got Ryan to join. “There are actionable steps to take towards starting a business” - Asher Tan CoinJar’s Success FactorThe company is more fintech than crypto in that they try and find benefits to users. That said, they do believe that cryptocurrencies are the best way to deliver benefits to their users. They are more focused on making financial life better for people as opposed to making the whole cryptocurrency thing work. They base their ability to achieve that on the fact that they fulfill the basics of financial wellbeing, which are; cheaper, better, more money, and faster. Their hope is that cryptocurrencies will help deliver financial services to everyone in the world especially those who don’t have access to the services, in an easier and better way. CoinJar is a digital currency account where one can buy and sell major cryptocurrencies.“We all imagine a financial future that’s freer, where more people can have access to financial services” - Asher TanThe “Locked” ConundrumSome people who were one of the first investors in Bitcoin when it came out are now unable to sell their millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin because they forgot their passwords or don’t even remember what their digital wallets were. Asher says that happens when someone doesn’t take the necessary steps to get educated on cryptocurrencies, and they decide to handle their cryptocurrency trading on their own. He suggests that people should start easy with a platform like CoinJar.“If you lose the cash then it’s gone” - Asher TanThe Future of CoinJarA lot of industries like retail shopping, publishing, and telecommunications have gone through huge changes and people have been anticipating changes in the financial industry (which has been happening through different innovative solutions), so digital currencies are seen as the definite future of the financial sector. “I think it’s a better future for everyone if we can have a more competitive industry” - Asher TanBecoming an EntrepreneurAsher believes every entrepreneur becomes successful in their own way with their own style of doing things. There is an obvious risk factor attached to entrepreneurship, and that’s what determines whether an entrepreneur will be successful in business or not. In Asher’s example, he says his relationship with his co-founder plays a big role in ensuring the continued success of CoinJar.“Being an entrepreneur by itself is incredibly a lonely process” - Asher Tan See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It only took six hours for Asher Tan and Ryan Zhou to put together the incubator pitch for CoinJar, a vision for a next-gen personal finance account that would capitalize on the growing interest in bitcoin and other digital currencies. Five years later, CoinJar is a leading digital currency platform in Australia and the self-proclaimed “fastest way to access your money from anywhere in the world.” CoinJar’s users can spend, send, and trade their bitcoins, dollars, and pounds globally. Despite the major challenges that come with scaling in a global market, the company has been profitable for the past three years. In this insightful interview, these brave founders share how they overcome scaling challenges, their next products to hit the market, and their top tips for entrepreneurs interested in creating fintech startups. Enjoy! Key Takeaways The specific challenges that come with scaling in a volatile market Why prioritizing word-of-mouth marketing wins over other advertising channels in this industry The duo's next products to hit the market Tan and Zhou’s top tips for fintech startups

This week we talked to Jordan Michaelides from CoinJar about how a cryptocurrency index fund works, and covered more of the basics around cryptocurrencies including storage, avoiding scams and the future of the industry. 

Bitcoin is the currency of the Internet: a distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money with no government, company, or bank in charge it. Coinjar markets itself as the easiest way to buy and sell your Bitcoin, and believe it or not, but it’s an Australian company. In this interview Asher tries to explain the importance of Bitcoin, how far he sees the appeal of CoinJar scaling, and why it’s so hard to be a startup in Australia, he had to move the business to the UK.

Revolutionary progress doesn’t happen without lots of work and in the case of Bitcoin that requires many different startups building technology. Few have contributed to this as much as Silicon Valley based startup accelerator Boost VC, which has been focusing on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency startups since 2013. Focusing exclusively on Bitcoin for an extended time, they’ve invested in companies such as Blockcypher, Coinprism, Coinjar, Mirror, Snapcard, Zapchain and many others. Boost VC Founder Adam Draper joined us to discuss running an accelerator, their investment thesis and why they’ve chosen to add Virtual / Augmented Reality startups to the program. NOTE: Applications to join the next tribe of Boost startups can be submitted until Wednesday July 1.

For episode 21 we had Asher Tan on CEO of CoinJar, a very successful Australian Bitcoin startup that offers similar services to Coinbase. We talked about the plans with CoinJar, what we think of Circle’s new product and the recent price increase. Levin Keller, who is a board member of the German Bitcoin foundation, joined us to talk about a recent statement by the German Finance ministry on Bitcoin. He has been warning about a possible sales tax on Bitcoin for months and that seems to be happening now. We talked through what the recent announcement means for businesses and where we’re likely to go in the future.
