For Episode 24 of Crypto Market Wizards, I am joined by Kain Warwick, founder of Infinex and Havven/Synthetix. He shares what it was like growing up with a father who was a professional athlete. He discusses his fascination with entrepreneurship and what led to the Havven (now SNX) ICO in 2017. He shares his "lunatic" stories as a founder and what his vision is for Infinex. At the end, he opens up about his drug addiction and what he learned after two full years being sober.
