Dr. Sebastian Purcell introduces The Art of the Bubble.

Just added: The Art of the Bubble

Introducing The Art of the Bubble, the newest Crypto Academy course brought to you by Real Vision and crypto hedge fund 1.2 Capital Management.

The doctor is in the house… 1.2 CEO and CIO, Dr. Sebastian Purcell, is your guide on this counter-conventional course.

“We decided to collaborate with Real Vision so we could literally democratize the tools of hedge fund management for everyone,” he says.

“We’re going to explain the principles that have worked in practice, and we’re going to start with the Art of the Bubble, [as] bubbles are the single greatest source of wealth-building you will ever encounter.”

To quote one of a Crypto Academy student, this course is “Right on the money! Great course, great strategies!”

Strap in….

In this new course you will learn:
  • Why you need to run at bubbles, not away from them
  • How to combine bubble-riding with a modified “conventional wisdom” portfolio
  • What we can learn from Sir Isaac Newton’s bubble-investing f*ck ups
  • The 3 elements of a bubble triangle
  • 3 key macro indicators available to the public (and how to use them)
  • What the remora fish can teach us about lead indicators
  • The 3-phase maturity cycle for cryptocurrencies
  • The exact role Bitcoin plays as a lead indicator
  • What to do when you’re late to a trade
  • How to organize a bubble-trading portfolio in a spreadsheet
  • And so much more

Ovie "OSF" Faruq

Ovie Faruq spent almost a decade working at Barclays as a credit trader and later a high yield trader. He gave it up to “do” web3 full time, and quickly became known for a legendary Bored Ape trade and also for creating Rektguy (apparently at a meeting in Barclays).

Ovie is the artist known as OSF, and co-founder of Rektguy, Canary Labs, and Degenz.

Michael "Mando" Anderson

Michael Anderson spent almost a decade trading high yield credit at Barclays and Goldman Sachs, before —according to an interview on Real Vision — getting OSF into NFTs, which he liked because they were both crypto and collectibles.

He is co-founder of Rektguy, Canary Labs, and Degenz, and author of Mando Minutes.
