Senior reporter @ Fortune | Covering fintech, crypto, venture capital, and financial regulation | Writing Term Sheet on Mondays
In 2013, Dan Morehead left a career in trading at venerated institutions like Goldman Sachs and Tiger Management behind to enter the volatile world of crypto, revamping his hedge fund Pantera Capital to become one of the first Bitcoin funds. With the backing of two Princeton classmates, Mike Novogratz and Pete Briger, he piled into Bitcoin at just $65, with Pantera growing to more than $5 billion today. My new profile has fun tidbits from the early days of Wall Street's takeover of crypto, from the Princeton mafia that infiltrated the industry to Morehead haggling with Coinbase employee Olaf Carlson-Wee to increase the limit on his buy orders. With Bitcoin now pushing $120,000, it's a bet that seems like common sense today—but Morehead had trouble convincing investors to buy at just $500.

Watching institutions realign on crypto feels like witnessing the early internet meet AGI acceleration. ??

21 小时前Thank you for sharing this article, an important one for all cryptos-wannabes. I started learning v late on the two big coins, as their spring-up was amidst the financial crisis, a v messy time. But looking onto the 3rd, I did bet it right quietly. It's all about usage and govt's embrace. In the whole article, couple of keywords and synonyms sprang up = Preach (1), Evangelize (2), Convinced (1), Possessed (1), Promise (1). It's all about Faith. I am a Catholic.
