What is truly driving the crypto markets right now, and how will macroeconomic shifts alter the landscape? In this episode, host Paul Barron sits down with Zach Pandl, Managing Director of Research at Grayscale, to unpack the complex forces shaping the future of digital assets. From Bitcoin’s recent price volatility and looming supply overhangs to the massive convergence of AI and blockchain, Zach breaks down what investors need to know to stay ahead of the curve. The Big Picture: Capitalizing on a $117B Market We look closely at the institutional landscape where the grand total of all US-listed Cryptocurrency ETFs—overwhelmingly dominated by spot Bitcoin and spot Ethereum funds—sits at an astronomical $117.20 billion in Assets Under Management (AUM).
