In this must-watch episode of Holistic Investments, host Constantin Kogan sits down with crypto veteran David J. Namdar, CEO of BNB Network Company! With over 10 years in the game, David shares his wild journey: from pitching Bitcoin to Millennium hedge fund in 2013 (and getting rejected for lacking shorts!), co-founding Galaxy Digital with Mike Novogratz during the 2017 bull run, launching the 2nd Bitcoin ETF attempt (right after the Winklevoss twins), and now leading the charge in digital asset treasuries as CEO of BNB Network Company (NASDAQ: BNC).Why BNB? David breaks down why BNB is the "digital equity infrastructure" powering Binance's 290M users and 40% of global crypto trading volume – outpacing Coinbase's market share 8x! Backed by CZ's Easy Labs (largest investor) and Tangem Capital, CA Industries holds the biggest BNB treasury on the planet. Learn how this MicroStrategy-inspired strategy (but for BNB) could 10x your exposure without direct access to Binance in the US. David predicts BNB surpassing XRP by end of 2025 – and why tokenized stocks, 24/7 markets, and AI agents will supercharge BNB Chain over Ethereum.Key Highlights:💸 David’s early days in crypto (2011!) and missed opportunities.💸 The rise of digital asset treasuries: From Bitcoin to BNB.💸 Why BNB could surpass XRP and dominate AI & robotics transactions.💸 Pro tips for CFOs and retail investors on navigating crypto volatility.💸 David’s personal philosophy: Live, Create, Have Impact (LCHI).David's mantra: Crypto is the ultimate meritocracy & non-zero sum game – grow the pie with ethics!
