Early life[edit]

He moved to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to pursue a career in the crypto industry.[4] Carl Runefelt started his crypto career as an active crypto market analyst on YouTube in 2017.[5] He regularly posts market analysis videos on his YouTube channel, “The Moon,”[5] where he discusses market trends, shares information about new cryptocurrencies, and gives tips for new crypto investors.

He regularly invests in startups. In a 2022 interview with Tamara Pupic, Managing Editor of Entrepreneur Middle East, Runefelt revealed his investments as well as commented[6] on the future of the crypto industry:

“I've personally invested in almost 400 crypto startups because I am extremely confident that crypto will dominate the world in the future. It may take another decade before we see mass adoption, which means that there is still a unique opportunity to 'get in early' and invest in many of those companies that will be a dominant factor in the world in the future. That's why I have invested and co-founded multiple crypto entities; for me, it's not enough to only bet my net worth, but my whole being is a big bet on crypto. I'm all in.”

Carl Runefelt is also a singer and songwriter. He started his first YouTube channel in 2011[7] where he uploads covers of popular songs. He plays guitar, piano, and drums, as well as composes and produces his original songs.[8]

Personal Life[edit]

Runefelt is a firm believer in the law of attraction. In an interview in 2022,[11] he said:

“It’s easy for me because I have a passion for what I do. This is a sign that the law of attraction is working for you. When what you do is fun and you can make money from it, you’re on the right track. I love making my videos, trading, and investing. I’ve attracted the path of least resistance to my big goals.”
