Hi - I’m Sean.

After years of experience in strategic finance and program management, I became fascinated by the history of money and monetary systems. I engage in daily reading and research about these topics, which has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of money, economics, and the effects of monetary systems on an economy.

Understanding the history of money leads to looking towards the future, which is how I became interested in Bitcoin and other digital assets. As the global economy becomes increasingly digital, so too will money. Motivated by the desire to analyze the evolution of money alongside a changing economy, I started this newsletter. Having spent considerable time researching monetary history, I believe that I bring a unique perspective to commonly discussed economic issues and that I do a good job explaining complicated topics that most people don’t often think about.

I also have an audio newsletter, Questioning Money, which is more educational than 808 Insights. Whereas 808 Insights addresses relatively topical news, Questioning Money is designed to teach listeners how systems of money work and how they affect our lives in more ways than we realize. Each QM is 5-8 minutes long and publishes infrequently.
