ep 8: Larry David Told Me to Buy Crypto! ft Ethan Wu

Ethan Wu is a financial reporter with FT.com, where he co-writes Unhedged, a weekday newsletter about markets and finance. He’s whip smart, articulate, and highly relatable. On this episode, Ethan and I dive into talking digital currencies, the utility of crypto, and how assets work. Some of my questions for Ethan were pretty basic, as reflects my own lack of knowledge when it comes to finance and markets, while others got a bit deeper into the Why? and What Next? of digital money. But, don’t listen for my questions. Listen for Ethan’s deep knowledge of the space he reports on, and some practical guidance for making sense of everything from stablecoins to why cash sometimes has a negative yield (!).
