#19: Revisiting crypto custody with Christoph Simmchen and Martin Burgherr

Managing your own crypto assets is challenging enough in a calm market. As the crypto world faces waves of turbulence this November, we were happy to sit down with Christoph Simmchen (Safe ecosystem) and Martin Burgherr (Sygnum) to make sense of how to assess and use different custody solutions.  

1. In this new background of FTX market events, how has your view of custody solutions in the market changed?
2. How do you think regulation will change? What in your view would be a welcome change? 
3. The use case for custody used to be pure custody, now its more about defi and staking – how do you think this evolves? 
4. On a more personal level, what are key factors and risks you consider when working with custody providers?
