Summary
Bitcoin is still hovering around $64,000 , but traditional finance keeps moving deeper into crypto. Matt covers Citi preparing to launch institutional Bitcoin custody, Kraken expanding U.S. stock trading across Europe, Visa searching for new stablecoin settlement partners, and Treasury beginning the rulemaking process for the GENIUS Act. The episode also looks at XRP falling below $1, renewed investment in Zcash mining and privacy, regulators reconsidering outdated market rules as tokenized securities grow, and serious trouble at BitMart as users reportedly struggle to withdraw funds and some employees remain unpaid. Meanwhile, Bitcoin managed to outperform the S&P 500 on Monday, even as the broader crypto market remains mostly stuck. Happy HODLing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
