Cobain had already discovered the potential of Bitcoin in the year 2013 and even launched his own cryptocurrency called MaxCoin. This was just a soft fork of Bitcoin andwas based on a famous celebrity, Max Keiser, who also supported this coin significantly. However, it lost relevance too early in the year 2014.

The year 2021 was bustling with activity in the crypto industry, and Cobie’s Twitter feed reflected it well. Rather than posting charts and educational trading content, Cobie focused more on commenting on major incidents related to the crypto industry and other current affairs in the crypto world.
Later, Cobie began hosting the famous podcast called UpOnly with his co-host Brian Krogsgrad, who is also a Twitter influencer and speaks about crypto. This show included interviews famous personalities and highlighted their views. It gained immense popularity when it hosted the biggest mainstream personality, Mark Cuban.
