Passing the Torch Podcast | The Future of Crypto with Christopher Giancarlo "Crypto Dad"This week on Passing the Torch, we're diving deep into the world of cryptocurrency and digital finance with a true industry legend: Christopher Giancarlo, former Chairman of the CFTC and affectionately known as "Crypto Dad" to his hundreds of thousands of followers.We kick off with Free Period, breaking down last week's market action—from the government shutdown that markets shrugged off, to NASDAQ's bull run, crude oil's 7% drop after OPEC's production announcement, and the rare paradox of both gold AND stocks hitting record highs simultaneously. Plus, we touch on major moves from EA and Buffett's latest play with Occidental Chemical.Then we turn to our main event: a fascinating conversation with Chris Giancarlo about the future of digital currencies, blockchain regulation, CBDCs, and where crypto is really headed. Chris has been unanimously voted into government positions twice, co-founded the Digital Dollar Project, and advised governments worldwide on crypto frameworks. This interview was so good, we kept the majority of it intact—trust us, you don't want to miss this one.Listen now wherever you get your podcasts!Sponsors:Get up to 43% off your first order at mudwtr.com/jasperemileTry Descript Pro free at descript.com/ptt#Crypto #Bitcoin #Finance #Markets #Blockchain #CFTC #DigitalDollar #Investing #BusinessPodcast
