Go Full Crypto was named after leaving the traditional financial system behind and adapting to using crypto on a daily basis. The initial episodes are meant to initiate those that are unfamiliar with the world of crypto, and the interviews bring the perspective of people all around the world that have chosen to do the same – use crypto in their daily lives.
