Our best attended cypto conference call to date was this remarkably informative call on September 7th, “How To Value Cryptocurrency”, which was a macro look at crypto valuation:

The blog post “The 7 Things You Need To Know From The Valuing Cryptocurrency Conference Call” is my second most read crypto piece to date (after a recent big picture crypto post “7 Thoughts…”).

Now, with Bitcoin blowing through $5,000, September breaking the record for ICO funding (at over $800 million), and almost two months since our last valuation call (2 months in cryptoland = 2 years IRL), we felt it was time to re-visit crypto valuation, but from a micro perspective.

On this call, we’re asking three leading crypto investors to each pick one crypto investment, and walk through in detail why they believe it’s a good investment, what are the factors they see that are likely to drive the price higher, and the risks they’ve identified that they’re willing to accept for their perceived upside.

While we generally have four speakers on a call, we’re excited to have only three renowned crypto investors on this call, leaving more room, after the prepared remark,s for questions from the audience.
