A Holiday Extravaganza With Top Picks, Rants, Bitcoin Triumphs, and Central Bank Challenges in our 'Best of' Special

This episode is sponsored by Cboe Digital

We are celebrating the holiday season with a special "Money Reimagined" edition featuring the hosts' top picks from the year in our 'Best of' compilation.

In this week's episode, Sheila Warren selects two of her favorite picks:

• Noelle Acheson On What’s Not Happening With Bitcoin
• The Impact of Tokenization on the Monetary System and the Need for Tokenized Central Banks

In the first installment, Sheila Warren is solo talking with Noelle Acheson CoinDesk collaborator and author of the Crypto is Macro Now newsletter on Substack. Acheson provides persuasive proof of Bitcoin's resilient performance over the course of the year, demonstrating its remarkable outperformance in comparison to conventional stocks.

They explore the importance of Bitcoin ETFs, with Warren offering insights into India's changing perspective on cryptocurrency and its position in global crypto regulations, offering a thorough analysis of the country's evolving landscape.

Sheila’s second pick is a conversation Michael and she both had with Hyun Song Shin, Head of Research at the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), about the recent release of the Annual Economic Report. They examine the challenges presently confronting central banks, and explore the immobilization or locking of tangible assets, along with the legal obstacles associated with tokenization.
