Show 82: Dave Chapman - BC Group & Bitcoin in Asia
Show support appreciated: 35iDYDYqRdN2x6KGcpdV2W1Hy3AjGje9oL Matthew interviews Dave Chapman, Executive Director of BC Group, the first and still only publicly traded fintech and digital asset company in Asia. We start off with Dave's background and his journey into banking and financial services, and how he eventually moved to Hong Kong and discovered bitcoin. Dave has been through many bitcoin cycles, both as a personal enthusiast and as an entrepreneur. We discuss the various products and services BC Group offers, from their OSL brokerage and trading platform to white labeling, and why they're primarily focused on institutional clients. We spend a lot of time taking the pulse of the regulators in Hong Kong and in Asia, what they want to see, what they don't want to see, and some of the progress Asian markets in particular have made in the digital asset space. We compare the more restrictive Chinese model with various other Asian markets. We talk central bank digital currencies and the emerging digital and economic landscape between East and West. We briefly touch upon the political situation and safety in Hong Kong, a city that Dave loves to live and work in, and will continue to do so. We close with some predictions for 2020.
