Brock Pierce is the original crypto cowboy. And this former child star and one-time Disney Mighty Duck’s sometimes shady journey through the crypto eco-sphere is practically the human embodiment of cryptocurrency’s sometimes shady journey through the zeitgeist. This influential and eccentric crypto-made billionaire, lives in the tax-free haven of Puerto Rico, a place he is controversially trying to turn into a crypto utopia. What is Brock’s next act? Spreading the gospel of crypto around the world – including playing a role in the largest global crypto experiment, the adoption of Bitcoin as an accepted national currency in El Salvador. How far can crypto, and Brock go?

This episode of Cowboy Kings of Crypto was made in 2022.
