The Meb Faber Show

Today’s guest is Bruno Caratori, co-founder & COO of Hashdex, a global crypto asset manager that launched the first crypto index ETF in the world.  In today’s episode, we’re talking all about the SEC’s recent spot Bitcoin ETF approval with someone from one of the 11 companies in the Bitcoin ETF race. And in crypto fashion, the approval actually happened halfway through our episode! Bruno talks about what a wild week it was with the fake announcement by someone who hacked the SEC’s Twitter account. Then he shares the unique structure he created for their ETF (ticker DEFI) and what his prediction is for total assets in Bitcoin ETFs by the end of the year.
