3 Value Bombs
1) Crypto 2.0 is crypto hitting the mainstream. It’s becoming much more than just a speculative asset. It’s becoming something people can build into a portfolio to help them achieve a long-term financial objective.
2) Decentralized finance is a mirror of the traditional world of financing, but in small contracts – removing loads of friction and making it more efficient overall.
3) Focus and plan. Find the one activity that will get you closest to your goal, and block out everything else. Focus on what really matters.

Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: The Era of Crypto 2.0 and DeFi
[1:21] – Philip shares something that he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.
- Being busy for the sake of being busy is one of the mistake people make.
[2:54] – What is Crypto 2.0?
- Crypto 2.0 is crypto hitting the mainstream. It’s becoming much more than just a speculative asset. It’s becoming something people can build into a portfolio to help them achieve a long-term financial objective.
[5:16] – The launch of AQRU.
- Its wider mission is to look at the world of DeFi, which remains very complicated, difficult, and risky for people to engage in, and provide a simple layer where people can understand and take advantage of the best yielding opportunities that are available in that space.
- AQRU is the bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance.
[6:49] – The role AQRU is playing in the field as a whole.
- Decentralized finance is a mirror of the traditional world of financing, but broken into small contracts, removing loads of friction and making it more efficient overall.
[10:05] – The concerns people are having and why the government wants to come in and regulate it.
- Regulators want to come in to remove some of the anonymity that we’ve seen in decentralized finance.
- A lot of people in the world of crypto want to remain anonymous – not have government oversight.
[14:08] – A timeout to thank our sponsors, HubSpot and Conversion Fanatics!
[16:30] – The mindset that somebody needs to launch a startup in the DeFi world.
- People are going to commit money to contracts where – if they’re incorrect – people can be hacked and people can lose money.
[19:52] – The Money Triangle book.
- The book is to give people a basic understanding of their money.
- Most people just want to find someone they can trust to manage their money.
[26:42] – Philip’s key takeaway and call to action for Fire Nation!
- Focus and plan. Find the one activity that will get you closest to your goal, and block out everything else. Focus on what really matters.
