Summary and Key Takeaways
Cryptocurrencies have come a long way since Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin Whitepaper. Over the past year, we’ve seen multinational institutions “crossing the chasm” to fully embrace and support the development of the space, and one of the most prominent corporate voices is “Big Four” accounting firm PwC.
In this episode, we caught up with PwC’s Crypto Leader and social media influencer Henri Arslanian, who explains the rising institutional demand in digital assets, the crypto services PwC offers, and the continued ascent of the booming DeFi ecosystem.
