NEW YORK—You think about exponential growth, you think about bitcoin. But it’s not only the price that’s going up exponentially—nearly 1,000 percent this year.

Bitcoin analyst and trader Tone Vays has grown his Twitter following from less than 10,000 in the summer to over 60,000 in December. His secret to Twitter success: He called nearly every top and bottom in bitcoin correctly this year on his YouTube channel and Twitter. 

However, it’s not just the charts and his predictions which make Vays so interesting, it’s also his knowledge and perspective on the whole cryptocurrency market.

In this hour-long video, Tone talks about his history in financial markets, why bitcoin is so exciting and important, why most other cryptocurrencies likely won’t succeed, and the best ways to get started with bitcoin. This video was recorded at Big Apple Studios in New York on Nov. 22, 2017.
