Beyond the Obvious – Bitcoin & my Delusion of Grandeur

DAD-With-WAVE

What is it about bull markets that leads to delusional behaviour? How can I immunize my thinking and behavior when I’m experiencing the collective delusions of the market?

In this episode, I talk about my embarrassing herd driven behavior during the Bitcoin boom of 2018 and the lessons that I learned on how to manage my emotional attachments around market extremes. I hope you enjoy the episode.
