In this episode of the Future of Money podcast, I sat down with Luuk Strijers, CEO of Deribit, to discuss their landmark $2.9 billion acquisition by Coinbase.

We explore what this means for crypto options, institutional adoption, the evolving landscape of collateral in crypto derivatives, and how regulatory clarity is reshaping the market.

A must-watch for anyone tracking the future of digital asset infrastructure and institutional crypto growth.
