The scope and pace of recent government intervention are unprecedented.

Bitcoin, alongside gold, merits consideration in a diversified portfolio. Join experienced macro investor Mike Novogratz, Galaxy Digital CEO, and Steve Kurz, Head of Asset Management, for the insider’s look at today’s market landscape and bitcoin’s future potential.

Topics to be discussed:

  • The current fiscal and monetary policy environment
  • The importance of hard assets in a portfolio
