When I left EY in April, I had a sense of closure. My career in crypto started in 2013 and I had spent the last eight years working to legitimize cryptocurrency in the eyes of regulators, financial institutions, and the average person. I remember talking with a friend in 2014 - we were saying institutional adoption of Bitcoin was “right around the corner”. Well it turned out to be a loooong corner, but the institutions eventually showed up. This year. Banks, custodians, hedge funds, university endowments and pension funds all jumped on the bandwagon. Crypto is now a legitimate asset class and I felt like I had climbed my first mountain.
