Lucas Cullen started programming from a very young age, liking the idea of being able to make games or tools that others would then use, or to use himself to automate processes. From his early days, this idea of pure logic inspired him and helped him see things early on when most didn't.

I was lucky to connect with Lucas to talk all things Crypto, his early days and how he held on, where the nickname Bitcoin Grandpa came from and how cryptocurrency is discussed within his household. Don't miss out on hearing a great perspective from someone who was in the space right at its inception.

As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
