Joining us today from Fidelity are Chris Kuiper and Jack Neureuter who recently released their Ethereum Investment Thesis report.
On this episode we're asking are the institutions serious about Ether? Has Ether passed through the gauntlet…like BTC? And what does it look like for institutions to actually begin investing in Ether the asset.
Fidelity manages $4.5 trillion dollars, that's many multiples
higher than the entire crypto market cap. This is worth paying
attention to.
