On today's episode of The Blockchain.com Podcast, we're joined by Charlie McGarraugh, Chief Strategy Officer and Head of Markets here at Blockchain.com. 
While crypto prices plummeted in May, gold had its best month since July of last year, up 8% for the month. Garrick Hileman - Blockchain.com's Head of Research - and Charlie discussed what's happening with gold, crypto prices, and tokenized gold like Blockchain.com's own DGLD token. 
In this episode, we discuss:

Charlie’s background as a gold trader at Goldman Sachs and the structure of global gold markets

why tokenizing traditional assets like gold is useful, and what functionality and advantages tokenization brings

Are gold and bitcoin more competitive or complementary?

Blockchain.com’s tokenized gold product called DGLD - how it is constructed, where the gold is stored, and its new wrapped version called wDGLD that can be stored and transacted in the Blockchain.com wallet

Enjoy!
