Bitcoin Bites Into Wall Street

THE ECONOMIC TIMES
About this episode

Be it a “financial revolution” or a “delusion,” Bitcoins seem to be getting more and more acceptance. The US securities regulator giving green light for the first Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), is being seen as a turning point in the short history of cryptocurrencies. ETFs poured in from giants like BlackRock,Fidelity, Franklin  Invesco. With institutions stepping in, will Bitcoin finally face its real test of being a true asset class? Will regulation reduce volatility or will it throttle the rise? And will India take its cue from the US? Tune in to The Morning Brief podcast with Arijit Barman and Apoorva Mittal as they speak to one of the sponsors of Bitcoin ETFs Bitwise Asset Management’s Juan Leon, along with Viram Shah of Vested, and Sandeep Goenka of Lightning Ventures. Tune in!
