This is Eric Golden and my guest today is Jack Neureuter. Jack is a Senior Research Analyst at Fidelity Digital Assets where he helps institutions make sense of the crypto ecosystem. Our conversation centers on three main themes - Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the institutional view on Crypto. We start by talking about where we are in the Bitcoin Cycle. We then cover the Taproot upgrade, the XRP court case, and how institutions think about allocating to crypto. Please enjoy my conversation with Jack Neureuter.
