In the crypto exchange world, it doesn’t get more OG than Bitstamp – the longest-running exchange out there. Episode 23 welcomes its CEO, Julian Sawyer, to discuss Bitstamp’s evolution throughout the years, as well as the wider crypto market’s growth.

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 search for in all the usual places.

In this audio interview, Julian dives deeper into the sector's demographic shift. He also shares his personal crypto origin story, Bitstamp’s vigorous listing process and even why he feels sorry for regulators. You can listen to Tyler's conversation with John by searching 'CopperCasts' on Apple Podcasts, Podbean, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Make sure to check out Julian's Show & Tell segment. In it, he describes the digital asset industry's changing demographic, explaining that a mere year ago, approximately 8% of Bitstamp's customers were female. Today, this figure stands at 18%.
