Yichen Wu – CEO & Founder, Tesseract – CopperCasts Ep 010

This week's Coppercast comes to you from the Finnish seaside city of Helsinki, where we met with the dynamic Yichen Wu, CEO and co-founder at Tesseract Investment. Tesseract is a forerunner in the rapidly growing digital asset lending market, enabling individuals or institutions to earn passive income on their cryptocurrency assets. CopperCasts are split into two parts. The first is a short (2min) video in which our guest shares with us something they find unusual or inspiring about the digital asset space. The second half is a traditional audio-only podcast, which you can stream at the bottom of this page, or search for it in all the usual places. The Show & Tell segment sees Yichen outline some of the inefficiencies in the crypto lending space, and explain how Tesseract and Copper are solving these issues. In the longer conversation, Yichen talks about the trends he is seeing in institutional crypto borrowing and lending, why regulators are right to take a slow and prudent approach to digital assets, nurturing the 'shallow' crypto talent pool, and why CrossFit is like airline food...
