In episode 007 of the Global Crypto Podcast, co-Founder and CEO of BitMEX Arthur Hayes started as a trader in Hong Kong, and after seeing the revolutionary power of Bitcoin, saw a great opportunity for a derivative market. He approached his Oxford University friends Samuel Reed and Ben Delo, and together they founded BitMEX in 2014, which has grown to the largest crypto exchange in only 5 years based on trading volume. In this chat, Arthur reveals his bullish case for Bitcoin, and why we’re seeing so much unrest in the middle of this global Pandemic.
