Ledger Cast Digs Into ICO Investing With Derek Waltchack

The latest episode of Ledger Cast, the cryptocurrency trading and blockchain podcast hosted by Brian Krogsgard, brings on a new co-host: Derek Waltchack, a partner at Shannon Waltchack, a full-service commercial real estate and property management firm in Birmingham, Alabama. The conversation centers on what the landscape looks like for accredited investors who want to back initial coin offerings, and on how to think about the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Regulation runs through the discussion as well. The two cover the uncertainty that still surrounds the space and how it affects investors deciding where to put their money. Waltchack's background in real estate shapes how he reads the market, and the episode also looks at what a blockchain-based disruption of the property industry could look like.

The episode doubles as an introduction. Krogsgard and Waltchack plan to interview project teams together, with Krogsgard bringing a trader's perspective and Waltchack bringing an investor's. Ledger Cast is available on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, YouTube, and via RSS.

The show notes carry a standard caveat. The content is educational rather than investment advice, and listeners should do their own research before buying anything.
