Crypto can feel overwhelming—even for experienced advisors. With thousands of digital assets in the market, one key question stands out: “Which ones should matter for my clients?”
Join Ric Edelman and Grayscale’s Head of Research, Zach Pandl, for a focused, practical walkthrough of the “Crypto Starter Pack” — the core digital assets every financial advisor should understand.
In this one-hour session, we’ll break down the four largest and most influential crypto assets — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and Chainlink — covering:
- What each asset is and the problem it aims to solve
- How the networks function and differ from one another
- How value accrues to each asset
- Why they matter in client portfolios today
You’ll leave with a clear framework for discussing digital assets with confidence — whether your clients are crypto-curious, skeptical, or already invested. In just 60 minutes, you’ll gain the clarity and conviction needed to elevate client conversations, strengthen your expertise, and position your practice at the forefront of a rapidly evolving asset class.
