If you ever doubted crypto was making its way into mainstream finance, this week might just change your mind.
π¦ The bank whose boss famously called Bitcoin a fraud is now putting its own digital dollars on public Ethereum.
π€ Mastercard is opening the door for AI agents to make payments using stablecoins.
π And some of America's biggest companies are fighting to stop their own shares from being tokenised.
So, we've got banks embracing blockchain, machines getting ready to spend money, and companies asking, "Hang on a minute, who said you could trade OUR shares?"
Welcome to Crypto Curious, brought to you by the Bamboo App. I'm Tracey, and Blake is off this week, so I'm delighted to welcome back a friend of the show. He joined us for our monster rally episode back in August, manages digital assets for a living, and has known me and my husband for about 35 years β which means he's got plenty of stories he probably shouldn't tell!
Ben Ritchie, welcome back and let's get into it! π
