This is why the crypto correction is a good thing

Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged.

Today I welcome first-time guest and cryptocurrency expert, Barry Cohen.

Barry is a former portfolio manager with over 20 years of experience in the hedge fund industry… More importantly, I’m honored to announce that Barry is the newest Editor and Senior Analyst here at Curzio Research.

On today’s episode, we get to learn what our newest addition is all about…

Barry talks about the changing regulatory state of cryptocurrencies… explaining why the latest government crackdowns are actually a good thing for the industry.

He then breaks down the key differences between an Initial Public Offering (IPO) and an Initial Coin Offering (ICO). Barry explains why only a handful of new coins out of thousands will survive and flourish…

And it’s something every crypto investor needs to know.
