In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, David Wachsman, founder of Wachsman and president of Hawkeye Digital, joins Bryce and Brendan to discuss the next evolution of crypto investing and why more blockchain companies may choose to go public instead of launching tokens. Drawing on more than a decade in the industry, David explains how Hawkeye Digital is combining merchant banking, strategic investment, and capital markets expertise to help established crypto businesses access public markets. The conversation explores why some tokens struggle to deliver value to holders even when their underlying companies succeed, the growing opportunity for tokenized equities, and how companies could eventually offer both traditional shares and crypto tokens.
