Join our co-hosts for a conversation with Kyle Hauptman, Vice Chairman of the National Credit Union Administration, on how blockchain and crypto represent an opportunity for financial institutions. We discuss how crypto presents an opportunity for income not sensitive to interest rates as well as a simplification of key processes like title transfers, and how the development of a path to access crypto via a trusted institution like a credit union could increase public interest in the tech. The vice chair also highlights the high impact the government can have in this space just by clarifying definitions or where regulations don't apply, short of developing guidance or regulations that will guide the use of  blockchain for finance. Listen now for more on how evolving and experimenting with new technologies might keep traditional finance institutions from going the way of Blockbuster.
