The fallout from FTX’s collapse and falling prices of Bitcoin, Ether and others has sent the entire crypto ecosystem into a meltdown. It’s no wonder financial advisors and crypto experts are divided into the industry’s fate.
Join us at this News Impact Talk where we discuss whether crypto is dead, or is its death just an over exaggeration? Issues like the regulatory environment, Web 3.0 and NFTs will be debated to see whether crypto can re-emerge as a viable asset class.
