This prevents anybody from fraudulently removing crypto from our platform."   "Surrounding myself with good people, mentors, board members, leaders, and being able to pick out that one or two things that's really applicable to us, that's probably my superpower."   "People have looked at me and they're like, Eric, you're genius. Like, how do you come up with all these ideas? I'm like, none of 'em are my ideas. What I'm great at doing is surrounding myself with a team and being able to execute on that."   "Just because somebody's an amazing mentor doesn't mean a hundred percent of what they're going to share is the right things for you and your business."   "Be careful with your investments. You want to put your money into places that are reputable, like what we are doing here at CoinLion."   Socials:   Website: https://www.coinlion.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CoinLion.official/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericatdocutap/   ----more---- Notice to the Super Entrepreneurs community: I invite you to join my webinar on how to scale your business and improve the quality of your life, without constantly chasing strategies and feeling stuck.
