Welcome to WSJ’s Take On the Week. Co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street’s banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.
This week, Telis and Gunjan skip debriefing about the headlines and jump straight into a special interview with Coinbase’s chief legal officer, Paul Grewal, to talk all things crypto, which has captivated both Main Street and Wall Street since the U.S. elections. They talk about what the crypto exchange is looking for when it comes to potential legislation and regulations under another Trump administration. They also get into what’s going on with stablecoins, tokens and cryptoassets, like bitcoin, dogecoin and dogwifhat. Later they discuss the SEC and what the industry could look like in the years to come.
