Good morning. CFOs, are you ready to handle cryptocurrencies? Alesia Haas, CFO at Coinbase, one of the largest centralized crypto exchanges in the U.S., knows a thing or two about the topic and shared some insight about what she sees on the horizon.
Fifty-two million Americans own or transact in crypto, Haas said during a fireside chat at the Nasdaq London Investor Conference on Wednesday. She expects that number to grow, especially as digital asset holders in November helped elect a wave of new members to the U.S. Congress that have "a very pro-crypto stance," she said.
