What’s Next For Galaxy Digital CEO Mike ...

Bloomberg and iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

The digital-asset industry is reeling from challenges many blame on a handful of so-called crypto bad actors and wayward CEOs. Of course we’re talking about the Do Kwon’s, the Alex Mashinsky’s, the Su Zhu’s… oh, yes and the Sam Bankman-Fried.

But while some industry leaders say they are upset by the allegedly illegal actions of some of their peers, they still have hope that the digital asset industry will thrive and the crypto market will recover.

Mike Novogratz is a prime example. He’s the CEO of Galaxy Digital, one of the top investment firms in the digital-asset industry. The 58 year-old is known for his ubiquitous presence in the cryptosphere as well as his assertive demeanor, which aligns well with many in the crypto crowd.

Novogratz made it through the chaos of 2022 – but that doesn’t mean he and his firm were left unscathed.

Bloomberg reporter Sonali Basak recently sat down with him and she joins Vildana Hajric to discuss what’s next for the Galaxy Digital CEO.
