Tokenization
Strategy's STRC hits record low as Wall Street races to tokenize everything
On this episode of CoinDesk’s Public Keys at the New York Stock Exchange, host Jennifer Sanasie sits down with Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals founder Ric Edelman to discuss the disconnect between declining crypto sentiment and Wall Street’s rapid investment in digital asset infrastructure. Their conversation covers the CLARITY Act, the fight over crypto in 401(k) plans, tokenization, and Edelman’s long-term outlook for Bitcoin. In this week’s 10X Trade, Maelstrom CIO Arthur Hayes shares his highest-conviction trade. Strive Chief Risk Officer Jeff Walton examines the future of digital credit following the sharp declines of STRC and SATA, arguing that digital credit could represent the next $300 trillion opportunity for Bitcoin. Also on the show, BlackRock Global Head of Digital Assets Robbie Mitchnick discusses BITA, the iShares Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, while 21Shares Co-Founder Ophelia Snyder explains why today’s financial infrastructure may be fundamentally incompatible with the tokenized future Wall Street is working to build.
