He also explains how AI and technology enable smaller advisory firms to compete with financial giants while providing the specialized education traditional firms often ignore.

About Alex Pron, CFP®, CBDA:

Financial advisor who broke away from Merrill Lynch, where he wasn't allowed to educate his clients on why they should own bitcoin. Alex founded Crossover Capital, an SEC registered, fee-only firm, to help advise clients on 3 things: 1) What you should know about bitcoin; 2) how do you properly secure your bitcoin from loss or theft; and 3) timing of bitcoin--when does it make sense to buy bitcoin and when does it make sense to play some defense and take some chips off the table.
