What does it take to leave a successful career in traditional finance and build something entirely new?

In this episode, Kevin Lepsoe reflects on his journey from the trading desks of traditional finance to entrepreneurship in Web3. We discuss the lessons of the 2008 financial crisis, navigating uncertainty, building teams, earning trust, and why founders must stay focused on their long-term vision despite the noise of changing markets.

This conversation is about leadership, resilience, and the mindset required to build.
