Episode #17: Yiseul Cho (Perceptra)

Around The Block Podcast

Yiseul Cho is one of the most legendary investors and advisors in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space. After co-founding Hashed, she has since created Perceptra, a blockchain production lab that works with hand-picked projects to bring their tech to the Asian market. In this interview, Elaine and Yiseul talk about her background and how she parlayed that into a career in blockchain, leaving South Korea years ago in search of blockchain development only to return after the country took a liking to Ethereum, and the two highest-potential sectors where she thinks blockchain will break through first.
