When the Eastern European hacker group DarkSide shut down the Colonial Pipeline in May of 2021, the ramifications were felt across numerous landscapes.In addition to impacting air travel and triggering panic over gasoline availability, the six-day interruption of fuel to much of the Eastern United States led to one of the highest profile ransomware payments in recent history.Although law enforcement was able to track down and recover more than half of the $4.4 million in Bitcoin that Colonial paid the ransomware attackers, two critical points had been made: the U.S. industrial sector was vulnerable, and they were willing to pay to restore operations.In support of the increasing concerns facing the industrial sector's cybersecurity needs, IBM recently reported that manufacturing overtook financial institutions and insurance providers in becoming the most targeted industry by cyber criminals in 2021.Joining us to discuss this ongoing threat is Eric Ervin, Global Director for Utilities and Manufacturing at 1898 & Company, a leading provider of data management and business consulting services. To download our latest report on industrial cybersecurity, The Industrial Sector's New Battlefield, click here.

Eric Ervin has a successful Crypto hedge fund and a background creating and selling ETFs, but his newest endeavors to bring Financial Advisors into crypto is a massive opportunity for the entire space with a group of people managing over $100 trillion. It is a big play and after years of work, the platform is integrated with tradfi systems and advisors are joining. They are now taking it to the next level to offer DeFi along with custody solutions to advisors. Name of Guest: Eric Ervin Name of Projects: BlockForce Capital OnRamp Invest Twitter URL of Guest: https://twitter.com/eervin1 Project Twitter URL: https://twitter.com/Blockforcecap https://twitter.com/OnrampInvest Project URL: https://defi.blockforcecapital.com/ https://blockforcecapital.com/ https://www.onrampinvest.com/ Bridging Traditional and Decentralized FinanceHis background as a quant and manager in trade for wealthy individuals and then his move into ETFs. Left Morgan Stanley in 2012 to build his own company. Created a dividends swap market for S&P 500 based entirely on dividend value and not price. Called it regulatory Tetris Regulators couldn't agree how to regulate. He convinced them to see it as an ETF and got that product approved after 2.5 years. Gave him an understanding of the process, but learned that the ETF market wasn't right market for a product like that. Then he started realizing that crypto and blockchain were perfect for what he was trying to do. Start a quant hedge fund using their own money and others to actually make money. Started with their money first in order to learn more and be in more. Was for people not going to manage it themselves. Started Blockforce capital in 2016 with his own money and then in 2019 took on outside money. Relates how they invested and managed money. Not a portfolio building fund. More about actively trading and leveraging all kinds of metrics in the market. Truly wanted to offer a hedge fund like return rather than just a portfolio strategy. What it was like when he made the move out of trade into crypto in 2016. They did it all in stealth mode. “How can we get ourselves out of the ETF business as fast as possible”. Why he thinks the idea of a Bitcoin ETF is as silly as an IBM ETF and is completely unnecessary when direct access or via a fund is superior. Access for all is his mantra. ETF industry takes a couple of billion to break even and then in a hedge fund about $30 million. Discussed how they tried to do an acquisition to ramp up faster and it failed at the last minute. Didn't market the hedge fund. Just had word of mouth spread the word. At the end of 2020 they rebooted onramp as a stand alone firm. Major investors like Softbank, Coinbase, & Gemini all investors. Sizable fund with great performance and gives them an opportunity to try new things, etc. How they came up with and built a platform for onramping financial advisors. No way to easily create accounts for clients. Coinbase asked him to build it. How May of 2021 was the iPhone market for crypto and they were able to now let anyone create via their system and access it via their existing investment accounts at TD, etc. How they are now going to move into DeFi projects with self-custody, but allowing advisors to manage for them. Providing EAT - Education, Access, and Tools We discussed what it is like for advisors to see what is available in crypto and how powerful it can be. His thoughts on where we are with regulators and the btc ETF. How amazing the process was integrating what they offer with a DAO as a product to launch. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/missiondefi/support

This episode is the fifth conversation in the Black Lives Matter series.  In it, you will hear Dr. Ervin talk about the collapse of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for black people.  He also talks about the choice between gradual change in contrast to “cataclysmic change” (his words) as relating to the liberation of black people around the globe. The close out of this episode is dedicated to Georgia as an instructional opportunity to understand the intersections of race, geography and politics as well as the implications of this intersection for black lives.  For more information, visit webpage:  https://empowermentstartshere.net/2021/09/05/episode-72-the-case-of-blm-with-dr-c-eric-ervin/

This is “ReSolve's Riffs” – live on YouTube every Friday afternoon to debate the most relevant investment topics of the day, hosted by Adam Butler, Mike Philbrick and Rodrigo Gordillo of ReSolve Global*.  “A year ago, digital assets were a fringe asset class, the mere mention of which could spell career risk. Now, the career risk is likely if you completely ignore the space.” Global markets are evolving at a blinding pace, and investors often find themselves in a race to catch up with what are sometimes truly tectonic shifts. Nowhere is this more emblematic than in the digital assets realm. We had the pleasure of once again hosting Tyrone Ross Jr, along with his new business partner Eric Ervin – founders of Onramp Invest – for a fascinating conversation that covered: A ‘meeting of minds' that resulted in Onramp Invest The fast and furious migration of digital assets into the common zeitgeist Trying to seamlessly integrate Onramp Invest into advisors' workflow – ease of access is crucial Onramp Academy – filling the education vacuum and establishing a foundation for conversations Integrating traditional finance with the crypto world The difference between digital assets and digital currencies One third of the S&P500's market cap is represented by financial services – the size of the DeFi (Decentralized Finance) Pie The importance of properly anchored risk expectations for a highly volatile and emerging asset class The discussion also included frameworks for understanding both the value of digital assets (think network effects) and their possible place in portfolios (where rebalancing is of paramount importance). Eric and Tyrone shared their screen to walk us through their portal and some of the very useful tools they've created for investors. Thank you for watching and listening. See you next week.   *ReSolve Global refers to ReSolve Asset Management SEZC (Cayman) which is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a commodity trading advisor and commodity pool operator.

The economic carnage wrought by COVID-19 has forced many long-time dividend paying stocks to slash their yields, with many more favored dividend paying names at risk of having to follow suit. Reality Shares Co-Founder and CEO Eric Ervin rejoins Let's Talk ETFs and walks listeners through the proprietary DIVCON "dividend safety" rating system that powers his firm's DIVCON Leaders Dividend ETF (LEAD) and DIVCON Dividend Defender ETF (DFND). The objective is simple: Help yield-focused investors stay one step ahead of the dividend curve by either completely avoiding those dividend payers that are most likely to cut their dividends, as in the case of LEAD - or by outright shorting those companies, as is the case with 25% of DFND's portfolio (the fund goes long the dividend paying stocks least likely to cut their dividends with the remaining 75% of its holdings). How's the strategy playing out for investors? So far in 2020, these ETFs' performance speaks for itself, with outperformance of between 8% (LEAD) and 11% (DFND) versus the S&P 500. Show Notes 4:00 - How has Eric's work life changed as a result of COVID-19?

Los Angeles woodworker, Eric Ervin, joins the episode. We talk shop, how success has led to becoming an employer, white label work, fleshing out designs for designers, and the pulls between having plenty of work and the desire to create work of your own. Along with the joys of weekend rockstarring and how, every once in a great while and although not normally recommended, it can actually work in your favor to pull up alpha.

According to Blockforce Capital and Reality Shares founder and CEO Eric Ervin, with a new technology that has the potential to be as widely adopted and profitable as blockchain, "it's better to be early than late to the party".

Neal Dwane, global strategist at Allianze Global Investments, said he believes current market optimism over trade issues with China may be misplaced, noting that the excessive optimism could bring an end to recent relief rallies, and he noted that the bigger potential for trouble lies in a potential global debt crisis where central banks have taken on so much debt that they can't buy more, making it hard for the Federal Reserve to raise rates without tanking the market and the economy. Also on the show, tax litigator Dan Pilla discusses why IRS refunds are down so far this year and if that's a bad sign, we rebroadcast a recent chat with Adam Grimes of Talon Advisors, and Eric Ervin of Blockforce Capital talks dividend stocks in the Market Call.

In many ways, the topic of conversation for this episode revolves around what ultimately amounts to a fairly vanilla, almost-index like  portfolio. The asset class in question, however, may verge on the exotic for listeners with less fluency in the field of derivatives. My guest is Eric Ervin, President and CEO of Reality Shares, and he has joined me to discuss their flagship ETF DIVY.  I would argue that DIVY is one of the few exposures that fits the definition of both being liquid and alternative.  By tapping into the OTC market, Eric and his team build a portfolio of 1-to-5 year dividend swaps, which have historically earned investors a unique return known as the dividend risk premium. Eric’s confidence to bring such a unique product into the market was borne from his experience as an advisor, where he utilized alternatives extensively with his clientele.  Learning more about this experience in evaluating alternatives and the mental framework he used that allowed him to allocate upwards of 50% of client portfolios to alternatives is where we begin our conversation.

Eric Ervin created an ETF of blockchain technologies. He knows the power behind the technology, and can see larger companies using blockchains in a variety of ways. Not only can blockchains develop cryptocurrencies, but they can also work to record legal contracts and be a record of documentation. Then the panel discusses the question, “Can blockchain be a viable asset class”? For more information, visit the show notes at http://moneytreepodcast.com/188
