Mark Yusko: Leadership Mindset, Blockchain, and Central Bank Digital Currency Defects

To Mark Yusko, founder, CEO & CIO of Morgan Creek Capital Management, Co-Founder & Partner of Morgan Creek Digital, leadership is about courage and being willing to fail, but this “participation trophy” world no longer encourages failure. Moreover, he states you have to have courage to step outside your comfort zone and embrace a new idea that has the potential to become big. In this episode, he and Jay have a conversation about investment and leadership mindset and how leaders can develop. Very focused on blockchain, Mark spends the bulk of his time in crypto spaces, and he is having a blast. He discusses what it’s like raising money for a crypto-centric fund, the creation, ownership, and future of digital assets, and the defects of central bank digital currency. Jay inquires as to where he’s looking to allocate capital, and where he’s seeing value, as they of course discuss the breakdown of his portfolio.
