17 分钟Here's your money briefing for Friday, June 20th.
I'm Mariana Aspuru for The Wall Street Journal.
Digital assets like Bitcoin and NFTs are being called a possible game changer for how we conduct traditional finance.
But we're still a few steps away before the old... can merge with the new.
Important parts of the plumbing need to be adopted.
I think that we are at the point where that is technically possible.
Five years ago, it was not technically possible.
I think that it's going to happen starting in the next 12 months,
but the conditions have not been right for that to happen.
That's Donald Wilson Jr. at the Wall Street Journal's Future of Everything Festival last month.
He's the CEO of trading firm DRW.
He joined WSJ's deputy editor-in-chief to discuss how this convergence might happen and why everyday investors should pay attention.
That's after the break.
At the Future of Everything Festival in May,
Wall Street Journal Deputy Editor-in-Chief Charles Farrell spoke with DRW's CEO,
Donald Wilson Jr., about the future of digital assets.
Today, we're bringing you that conversation.
It's been edited down for time and clarity.
I wanted to dive right in and get going with Don on a whole bunch of topics.
And this is the future of everything.
