How Crypto Professionals Are Staying Sane During Quarantine (Video)
Days of lockdown have turned into weeks. Here's how crypto is handling the COVID-19 crisis from home.

"It’s in these times that you recognize that human links are very important," said Hugo Renaudin, CEO of crypto exchange LGO. It would seem counter-intuitive that in an age of bottomless inboxes and non-stop Zoom conferences, what people miss most is interpersonal communication. But, duh.
CoinDesk spoke to a number of technologists and executives, based from Guadelajara, Mexico, to the land of Oz, to get a sense of how people are adapting to the new normal.
