Edward Woodford is the co-founder of Seed CX, an institutional trading platform that received approval from the

CFTC as a swap execution facility in August 2016. In this conversation, we discussed

crypto financial products, emerging markets, how institutional investors think, and why crypto is such

an interesting problem for anyone building regulated exchanges. I really enjoyed this conversation,

and I hope you do too. This podcast is presented by Blockworks Group, the only blockchain event
