"In my 20s I drifted frankly. I fancied myself a bit of a Renaissance man. I wrote dreadful poetry tried to open a wine bar in Fulham and spent a brief but memorable stint managing a New Romantic band. None of it paid and all of it ended in tears and shouting. Then one cold February morning in the early 1980s I found myself outside the Bank of England in a borrowed suit pockets empty pretending to read the Financial Times but really wrapping it around me for warmth. A passing acquaintance from school who was now a junior trader at Barclays spotted me and took pity. "Christ Ptardio you look"

"Last summer I was made redundant at the age of XX. No gold watch no fond farewell. Just an email from Susan in HR and a few Pret sandwiches in the lobby. After XX years on trading desks across London Hong Kong and New York I was suddenly surplus to requirements. I wont lie. I was lost and I was scared. I wasn't ready to count down my final years on the golf course. Markets were my life and I knew I still had something to offer. The problem was I had no bloody idea what that looked liked. That's when I discovered crypto-currency. A few months ago I began sharing my thoughts on this fascinating"
