Scott Fletcher (Intersection GP) on Executive Search in the Digital Asset Industry (EP.555)

Today on the podcast, I sat down with Scott Fletcher, the founder of Intersection Growth Partners, a leading executive search and investment firm in the blockchain industry. This was a great conversation that provides some tangible advice for founders who are scaling businesses and looking to recruit senior talent. We also spent a lot of time talking about the overall market structure in the blockchain space and the impact that has on the hiring market. I think you'll enjoy this one. So without further ado, here's my conversation with Scott Fletcher.

down by Bad Mortgage Investments, Lehman, which has 25,000 employees, will be liquidated. The federal government loans American International Group, AIG, $85,000,000,000. This is a different kind of market, and the Fed is asleep. The

federal government is stepping it to stabilize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the 2 mortgage giants that have been threatened by the housing crisis. The

Bank of England has pumped £75,000,000,000 more to Britain's ailing economy with a new round of quantitative easing. You

print a couple $1,000,000,000,000 and all of a sudden people start to worry. So out of this worry, we have something called the Bitcoin. Bitcoin.

Scott, thanks so much for joining us today on the podcast. Great

to be here. Thanks for having me on, man.

So we've worked together a lot over the years, but I actually don't even remember your origin story. So how did you come into the crypto space and tell us a little bit about Intersection Growth?
