Grayscale's Krista Lynch on the ETF Playbook

CoinDesk's David LaValle and Kate Irwin sit down with Krista Lynch, Managing Director and Head of Trading and Capital Markets of Grayscale, at the Ripple Swell conference. Lynch details the launch of Grayscale's Zcash ETF, which she says reached roughly $1 billion in a heartbeat, and explains how Zcash pairs privacy with transparency through audit keys while the fund invests only in the public pool rather than shielded pools. Lynch also outlines Grayscale's new model-portfolio program built on its 13 single-token ETPs, its filing to tokenize two existing products, and her view that stablecoins are necessary infrastructure for 24/7 tokenized trading. - Chapters/Timecodes: 00:00 Grayscale's Krista Lynch at Ripple Swell 00:20 The Zcash ETF Launch (ZCSH) 01:28 Privacy, Transparency and Audit Keys 02:36 Public Pools vs. Shielded Pools 03:20 Zcash as a Hedge in the AI Era 03:56 Bitcoin ETPs and Share Growth 05:09 Model Portfolios as Building Blocks 06:03 Tokenizing Grayscale's Products 07:00 Stablecoins as Necessary Infrastructure - #digitalfinance #finance #bitcoin Subscribe to CoinDesk on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/CoinDesk?sub_confirmation=1 CoinDesk is the leading digital media, events and information services company for the crypto asset and blockchain technology community.
