About the episode

In the first episode of Season 5, we are joined by the one and only Derek Edwards. Derek is one of the most kind and thoughtful people we know. Heā€™s a managing partner at Collab Currency which is a crypto-focused venture firm investing at the crossroads of culture and consumer technology. Heā€™s also a co-founder of Glitch Marfa, an analog gallery for digital objects stationed in the heart of Marfa, Texas.

We dive into Derekā€™s background before falling into the crypto rabbithole, the investment theses behind Collab Currency, the founding of Glitch Marfa, thoughts on AI, how he met his wife, balancing multiple portfolios between personal, venture, DAO and more.
