Daniel Prince is a father, world-traveler, author, podcaster, former FX broker, avid Bitcoiner, and much more. We dive down some fun rabbit holes as we explore his family’s journey around the world after quitting his job and selling everything, what led him to Bitcoin, and questioning the way in which we view everything around us. We are joined by two of his daughters, Lauren and Sophia, for the first 30 minutes as they share fun stories about their travels and insights about schooling!
