Looking Ahead at the Future of Digital Capital Markets with Brent Xu

On this episode of the DIVI Crypto Podcast, our host Steve McGarry is joined by Brent Xu, the Founder, and CEO at Umee. To start the show, Brent talks about his introduction to the world of crypto and how an early class on bitcoin taught by Campbell Harvey changed his mindset on everything. Brent expands on the mission behind Umee and what they are trying to accomplish with their platform. Steve asks Brent to explain further what rehypothecation means to the audience and how that pertains to bitcoin. Brent also talks about Umee using IBC and why he believes it is the winning route as opposed to other bridges.
