In this episode of Around The Coin, host Stephen Sargeant sits down with Amanda Wick, author of The Catalyst and Founder & CEO of the Association for Women in Cryptocurrency, for a wide-ranging conversation about the forces reshaping institutions, technology, and society.
Amanda shares insights from her experience in financial crime, crypto, and public service, including her work on the January 6th Committee. She and Stephen discuss misinformation and social engineering, declining trust in institutions, political polarization, the relationship between crypto and regulation, AML and financial crime, and the growing tension between technological progress and democratic institutions.
They also explore the state of the crypto industry, the consequences of regulatory and political decisions, FATF and the global financial system, gender inclusion in crypto, and why Amanda believes meaningful change ultimately depends on people rather than institutions alone.
This is a conversation about more than crypto. It’s about who shapes the systems we live under, how those systems change, and what happens when trust begins to disappear.
