Summary of A: Most people now think of crypto as an asset for investing. In this part, Dr. Black explains how people are buying crypto as a digital asset and how they are adding crypto to their investment portfolios. Many financial institutions already are monitoring the outflow of their depositors’ funds to crypto exchanges like Coinbase. How should financial institutions be responding to this trend? Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are another example of a digital asset that provides a digital record of ownership, which can be extremely important in the “tokenization” of both digital and physical assets. As you consider your own crypto learning journey, you will learn about the role of digital wallets for sending and receiving digital assets. Finally, Dr. Black will encourage financial institutions to engage with their members in a discussion about what role crypto assets can play in their financial well-being.
