Don't Buy The Bull

By: Cassandra T.
  • Summary

  • Welcome to "Don't Buy the Bull", a podcast dedicated to unmasking the truth behind how so-called trusted Wall Street institutions and the American government really work.

    I'm your host, Cassandra Toroian, (call me Cass). I am a 25-year veteran of the investment business, both as an ex-investment manager and Wall Street Journal all-star analyst. I've started and sold companies, written a book called "Don't Buy the Bull" and even been sued by the government!

    I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and experiences to give a glimpse into how things like Wall Street and the federal government really work so YOU can make better decisions by yourself about your life and your money.

    What you'll get here is a combination of big-picture market stuff, the economy, what and how the markets really function, and how they interact with our government and political institutions.

    So if you want to learn how to make the secret sauce yourself, stand by....and let's go.

    In episode 9 of Don’t Buy The Bull, Cassandra Toroian interviews Andrew Wagner, a prominent figure in the gaming technology industry, as they discuss the impact of blockchain on gaming, investment opportunities, and the future of decentralized gaming.


    Tune in to learn more about the exciting intersection of blockchain and gaming!


    TIMESTAMPS

    [00:19:28] Blockchain in the gaming industry.

    [00:23:04] Play-to-earn model on blockchain.


    QUOTES

    • “People always argue about if you can afford that if you did pay for that, if the receipt was collected, payment was delivered, and at what time. And the blockchain is good at that because those are facts likely to be disputed.” - Andrew Wagner
    • “I'm hoping we'll see more of that, I guess, innovations of that nature, because there have been a lot of instabilities with certain games here and there in the past, like Axie Infinity, for example. Everyone's heard of the spectacular collapse of that just because people were betting on the tier-one token, which players can earn directly. And that can be unsustainable in the long run. You have to be more careful than that.” - Andrew Wagner
    • “I really appreciate learning more about how blockchain is affecting the entire gaming industry because it's a huge, huge economic powerhouse for investors, the entire gaming industry.” - Cassandra Toroian
