Jeremy Gardner is the founder of MadeMan and the Managing Partner of Mystic Ventures. He is a serial entrepreneur, angel investor, venture capitalist, and has a reputation for being successful. For years he has been operating at frontier industries such as Blockchain technology, cosmetics and psychedelics. He’s also well-known for being one of the earliest entrepreneurs in the Crypto space.
In 2014, while he was in college, he founded the Blockchain Education Network (BEN), offering courses and jobs globally. Shortly, he co-founded Augur, the decentralized prediction market platform; and had the first ICO utility token and Defy App on Epirium.
He worked as an entrepreneur in residence and an investor in Blockchain Capital; investing in some of the industry’s biggest companies, and creating the first tokenized security PCAP. Jeremy also served as the founding Editor-in-Chief of distributed magazine.
In this episode, Jeremy shares insights into:
◈ Success in Blockchain technology.
◈ Experience in using psychedelics.
◈ Turning points and changes for the betterment.
[00:02:39] Talk to us about how you got in this stuff. How you started in the crypto world.
[00:02:49] You know, 2010, 2011 is kind of like the first, “Hit Me!”. Like you gotta get me on this!
[00:03:12] We were all kicking and screaming on this thing.
[00:04:44] Crypto vs Politics.
[00:05:45] And then at my first BitCoin club I discovered Bitcoin clubs at MIT and at Stanford. And that same night I got a call to make an organization out of this.
[00:05:57] It happened very quickly. In three months I had incorporated a non-profit in every continent.
[00:06:12] Hungry for Crypto.
[00:06:16] There weren’t a lot of resources, now it’s the largest and oldest non-profit in the Ethereum Blockchain.
[00:06:56] The one thing that stood out to me is how quickly you collaborated with other people.
[00:07:04] Activism.
[00:09:59] My generation’s thing!
[00:10:31] Seize the moment.
[00:17:43] I started to have some serious psychological issues. I was on psychiatric drugs, nothing worked. One day I ate mushroom and my life changed.
[00:19:06] Long before this renaissance in psychedelics. I was aware of the medical potential of these substances.
[00:39:44] If there’s something you’re passionate about, go all in on it.
