This week’s Friday Five is a whirlwind tour through one of the most bullish weeks for crypto on Wall Street in recent memory. NLW and Scott Melker break down Coinbase’s historic addition to the S&P 500, Galaxy’s NASDAQ uplisting, and eToro’s surprisingly strong IPO. They also cover a surprisingly soft inflation print, new Bitcoin treasury players raising eyebrows, a potential regulatory shift at the SEC, and the return of Meta’s stablecoin ambitions. From index fund legitimacy to political stablecoin fights, this episode is packed with signals that crypto may be entering a new phase of mainstream integration. Enjoying this content?
