Description

BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, teamed up with the crypto exchange Coinbase in a move that both Wall St and crypto types are watching closely. According to BlackRock, the partnership will help clients better manage and trade their Bitcoin. The deal comes at an interesting time for Coinbase, as it faces over $1 billion loss for the second quarter of 2022 and intense regulatory scrutiny on multiple fronts. 
Bloomberg reporters Yueqi Yang and Silla Brush join this episode for more on the latest Wall St foray into crypto. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crypto is the world's hottest financial trend. Digital tokens like Bitcoin and NFTs have moved from niche products to showing up in Super Bowl commercials and song lyrics.  Advocates of these new asset classes promise they will democratize the finance industry, and they hail the blockchain technology that backs it all as the future of computing. Skeptics say it's another financial house of cards. No newsroom on the planet is better equipped than Bloomberg to cut through all the noise and provide clarity, context and authority. In this new daily podcast, Bloomberg’s reporting team will tease out what’s actually important in the crypto conversation. Led by crypto expert Stacy-Marie Ishmael, the podcast will draw on reporters in every region and credible voices in the industry to cover everything from regulation to alt coins to DeFi, and even the environmental impact of the currency that promises to change the finance landscape indefinitely.
