Publisher's summary

In From Hoodies to Suits: Innovating Digital Assets for Traditional Finance, leading finance innovator Annelise Osborne bridges the gap between the "hoodies" who invented the technology behind digital assets and the "suits" who run traditional financial markets, in an entertaining and insightful guide for implementing digital assets in an institutional environment.

You'll discover the possibilities unlocked by new technological advancements, including alternative investments, new marketplaces, interoperability between counterparties, and even improved forms of diversification.

You'll also find:

- Discussions of why the adoption of digital assets is so critical for the future of finance and the ways the industry's largest players are implementing its technologies and concepts now.

- Explorations of what we can learn from some of the crypto industry's most infamous and well-known wins and losses, including the collapse of FTX.

- Strategies for implementing institutional digital assets to realize opportunities in private markets, funds, debt, repo, alternative assets, and back office transactions in this evolving and dynamic financial environment.

Bitcoin Knowledge is Lacking

The author does not understand bitcoin at all. She seems to be very new to the blockchain industry and needs to study bitcoin deeply.

Insightful and engaging. A must read/listen!

Do you have or want investments? Do you work in tech or financial markets? If yes, then this book’s for you. Annelise Osborne provides a glimpse into the future of finance in an easily-consumable and engaging way. Everybody can benefit from this! The quickly-evolving blockchain and digital assets spaces are clearly illustrated with industry anecdotes and historical context. Osborne does a great job highlighting ways for tech pros/hoodies and Wall Street pros/suits to team-up to drive safe and secure transformation of financial markets and widespread adoption. Plus, Osborne reflects on Crypto’s initial blunders (FTX, 3AC), specifically lessons learned to strengthen the industry. I just started listening to the book for a second time to reinforce key content.
