Fredrik Haga couldn’t have started a crypto startup in a tougher environment, now Dune has a billion dollar valuation.

Three years ago Fredrik and co-founder Mats Olsen were getting used to hearing ‘no’. Rejected by 100s of investors, they decided to go back to basics, zeroing in on creating a product people genuinely wanted and recognizing the importance of traction.

Through sheer grit and no small amount of stubbornness from its founders, Dune is now commanding $69 million in Series B.

Joe interviews Fredrik, getting into the weeds of scaling a crypto company, building community, and their recent raises.

You’ll also hear Joe and Fredrik diving into the difference between live reporting and quarterly reports and why that matters for investors.
