Yat Siu | How The US Can Catch Up To Asia On Crypto

In this episode, we're joined by Yat Siu, the Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Animoca Brands.

Animoca operates across a number of pillars from operating web3 businesses to advising regulated stablecoin projects to having an investment portfolio of over 570 companies – one of the largest in the crypto space. 

While Yat isn’t solely American focused, he has a strong understanding of the US markets, founders operating in the space and a vision into it all. We discuss the policy differences across the global crypto market and evolving investment strategy for gaming, stablecoins and more. We also dive into USDT vs USDC, adoption of stablecoins and what will open the floodgates for the industry.
