Description

Paul Tarantino, CEO of ByteFederal, shares his incredible journey from traditional finance executive to Bitcoin evangelist. After years at UBS and a 140-year-old trust company, Paul became the "water cooler Bitcoin preacher" - until compliance came calling. 


In this revealing conversation, Paul explains:

• Why he told clients he was "irresponsibly long Bitcoin" 

• How his clients' Bitcoin positions grew from 1% to 30% of portfolios

• The compliance confrontation that ended his TradFi career

• How ByteFederal went from friends & family money to $104M in sales

• Why "people get Bitcoin at the price they deserve"

• The simple truth: "All you have to do is click buy"


Paul breaks down the inflation crisis, why the 60/40 portfolio is dead, and how Bitcoin offers the only escape from monetary debasement. He shares stories of clients turning $30/day into over $1 million and explains why this is the first time in history retail beat Wall Street to a top-performing asset.


ByteFederal operates 1,400+ Bitcoin ATMs across 42 states and is building the future of Bitcoin adoption with their "Go Bank Yourself" mission.
