Ray Youssef, CEO of Paxful - A True "Hero's Journey", That Brought Bitcoin to Millions

Ray is the co-founder and CEO of Paxful, a platform that provides an open market place with over 350 ways to buy and sell bitcoin. Ray and his company have been a big part of providing solutions for those in underserved areas of the world, attempting to join and transact in the bitcoin economy. Having met Ray briefly at Bitcoin 2021, and after watching some of his other interviews, I thought he might have an interesting story to tell, and I was right. I REALLY enjoyed this conversation. It was a pleasure to connect with someone who's had as many interesting life experiences as Ray. It's evident that he's gained a ton of wisdom from them, and used it, and some insane perseverance, to build a business that is empowering millions of people to establish greater sovereignty and prosperity in their lives.
