Jon Chou and Tony Tran are the co-founders of the Bee Token, a decentralized home sharing network where hosts and guests can connect with one another without going through a middleman like Airbnb or VRBO. That means cheaper stays for guests, and more money for hosts, democratizing access for just about anybody.

In this episode, we follow the Bee Token's growth from idea in October to ICO in February, and share their learnings for others who want to follow the cryptocurrency route. Their ICO presale sold out in just 5 minutes!
