Collaboration with Regulators to Ensure Safety
Ted Pick emphasized the importance of working with regulators to ensure safe crypto integration. Quote: “For us, the equation is really around whether we, as a highly regulated financial institution, can act as transactors.”
The Role of Financial Institutions in Crypto Adoption
