How The Metaverse, Crypto & NFTs Are Changing Modern Business
As the founder of CFOAF, a financial services and business consulting firm specializing in industries ranging from construction to crypto, Byron Wolfe's greatest gift is in translating the complexities of business financial principles – with a focus on small businesses – into easily understood communication. It is a quality that has made him one of the most highly sought financial and business consultants. Byron is also the chief financial officer of an INC 5000 company, and the fractional CFO of various companies with annual revenues ranging from US$3-25 million.
His certification in the crypto, NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) and Metaverse space has led to many projects with DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations) and crypto companies, and he is regarded as an expert in crypto tax strategy.
Yet, recalling his own challenges as an entrepreneur, Byron’s truest passion lies in helping small business owners expand their financial reach and success through various tools such as research and development tax credits, proactive tax plans, creative funding and high contact financial management.
He talks to Regulatory Ramblings’ host Ajay Shamdasani about what originally put him on the entrepreneurial path, and how the Metaverse and virtual assets such as cryptocurrencies and NFTs are fundamentally altering the face and structure of business. They also discuss the impact of DAOs and the benefits of crypto tax strategies.
