Descripción del Episodio

Sebastian Ness, the 25-year-old CEO who built Sure Leverage Funding out of the wreckage of a competitor that went under overnight, sat down with me and hit me with a claim I couldn't shake: some of his traders have strung together 50 or 60 payouts in a row without ever breaching an account. We got into how his risk team catches "reverse hedging," where a trader bets both sides of the same trade across two different platforms, and how his wife's credit card, not his, funded every account he traded before Sure Leverage even existed. But what stayed with me was him telling me, flat out, that two different people broke into his house trying to get into his Bitcoin wallet, and that he still doesn't see the point of holding the coin at all.
