RAN Neuner is widely known as the host of ‘Crypto Trader’, the world’s first cryptocurrency TV show, which was launched on CNBC in 2017.
But what is the story behind Neuner and what’s his net worth?
Who is Ran Neuner?
Ran Neuner was born on August 27, 1975, in Israel, but later emigrated to South Africa in 1981.
He studied at the Wendywood Primary School and King David School, and later, graduated from Crawford College.
After graduating from university with a bachelor degree in finance, Neuner went on to create a number of business ventures including a shoe import business and an electronics company.

The company quickly grew to become the largest sales and marketing agency in Africa.
Neuner went on to sell the business to the Publicis Groupe in 2015 for what was then the biggest business transaction in Africa.
Neuner said: “I sold the business because I discovered the financial technology space and, like everyone, once I went down the rabbit hole, I couldn’t focus on anything else.”
In 2017 he then bought his first Bitcoin during the cryptocurrency bull run and went on to found Onchain Capital, which provides consulting services and helps clients invest in digital assets.

In 2020, the entrepreneur then launched his current YouTube channel, Crypto Banter, which at the time was the world’s first cryptocurrency live-streaming platform. Crypto Banter now has more than 550,000 subscribers.
Neuner hopes Crypto Banter will become the world’s first crypto-focused streaming platform available 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.
