My professional background in international capital markets and securities law provided a foundational understanding of universal economic sensibilities that drive global markets.  Starting my career during the dot.com craze, I celebrated countless IPO's that ended up worthless, lived through the subsequent recession, the sub-prime mortgage crisis, moved to alternative markets and geographic regions, flip-flopping back and forth between debt and equity based on market whims beyond the control of individual investors.   

​

Regulations governing financial markets and institutions ostensibly aim to protect the interests of individual investors.   But history has proven such regulations have a perverse result, albiet unintended, due to unbalanced power dynamics inherent within centralized financial institutions which favor the wealthiest at the expense of struggling individuals. 

​

I was an early believer in digital assets, a 2008 financial experiment that has since evolved into a network of transactional value and efficiency changing global commerce.  Once denigrated by governments and centralized institutions, cryptocurrency has now been adopted by those same institutions because they can't afford to ignore it.   But cryptocurrency has always been misunderstood..... It's not about the crypto or the currency.  It was, is, and always will be much more about the chains that govern it.  The implications of this misconception form the basis of SLC's mission- DEX INSIGHT.

​

DEX INSIGHT champions individual ownership, micro-enterprise, ethical ingenuity, informed risk tolerance and transparent market systems.   Decentralized finance is no longer a concept.  It is the future of finance.  

Own your worth.  Own your future.  Because you finally can.
