Summary

Recorded 29 January 2025. We’re beyond stoked to welcome Marco Santori as our guest on the CFB Talks Digital Assets podcast. Marco was Kraken’s Chief Legal Officer for, quite possibly, 5 of the most pivotal years crypto will see for some time, and he remains a senior Kraken advisor. Widely thought of as ‘Crypto’s Attorney’, Marco has been the driving force behind several initiatives in the US - many with implications beyond - aiming for fairer and clearer future regulations, and a more rational application of current regulations. Little wonder Marco is also - reportedly - a candidate to be chair of the Commodities and Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). If you’re serious about how US crypto regulation could (and should) evolve, and what could truly revolutionize access to digital assets there, don’t miss this episode.
