\u201cBitcoin is a fixed supply and there\u2019s growing demand. So my long term outlook is constructive\u2026 no matter what happens week to week\u2026 it\u2019s not going to stop the secular trend.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Even as Bitcoin hovers around $70,000 after a steep February correction, Coinbase Institutional co-CEO Brett Tejpaul sees unstoppable momentum in bank partnerships and tokenization.

I got really excited by it, and opted not to do it within the confines of banking. And then as luck would have it, I was introduced to Brian [Armstrong] and his super expansive vision on where crypto was headed.\u201d<\/em> Tejpaul joined Coinbase to bridge TradFi rigor with blockchain innovation, capturing 90% of US ETF volume via BlackRock and others.\u200b<\/p>\n

Bank Deals Signal Mass Adoption<\/strong><\/h2>\n
