John Furrier

>> Welcome back. I'm John Furrier, host of theCUBE here with Gemma Allen, my co-host, and also producing our social media here at the show floor of the NYSE. It's the live stream of the Bitco IPO coverage. What a celebration. Gemma. It's been great. You've been getting all the social hits. We've been talking to all the insiders, everyone here. They rang the bell just minutes ago. An amazing, amazing day for Bitco, and of course, theCUBE on the show floor.

Gemma Allen

>> The energy is just incredible, right? We've been drinking the coffee and the donuts, playing Pac-Man outside, playing crazy golf. It's Just such a fun morning here at the NYSC, but also, what an incredible morning for the crypto industry broadly, what it signifies.

John Furrier

>> Well, we're bringing you all the action from the show floor where all the people are talking. We're inside the ropes. Gemma, what are you hearing? I'm hearing a bunch of stuff. I don't want to go to you first. What are some of the things you're hearing?

Gemma Allen

>> We've been asking people, Bitco in one word, and the one word we keep hearing again is trust, resilience, security. They just keep coming up again and again and again. we've heard lots of great stories from folks that have been at the company for a long time, eight years plus. There's a real energy to this. I feel like there's a sense that this has been a long time coming. They've been long, loyal believers. And now here they are in Wall Street.

John Furrier

>> Well, Bitco is a digital infrastructure company, digital assets. The big market force obviously is the real world assets that we know. Money. It could be any asset moving into a digital form, cryptocurrency infrastructure, but also the money systems also digitized. So we're starting to see that wave of how do you hold it? How do you have custody? How do you put it to work? These are the market forces that are driving it. All the insiders from investors from Silicon Valley to New York City, Wall Street are all really into this because the institutions are picking it up. The financial services, the ETFs, they don't want to store this in some place. They're starting to see the money, money side come into the infrastructure.

Gemma Allen

>> It gives the whole level of legitimacy to the crypto space generally, right? It means that now we are here on Wall Street. It's an institutional bet. We're seeing more and more of it. In the Crypto Trailblazer program generally, Don, you see in here, same things as me, week on week, right? This is a industry that is growing momentum by the minute. And I think 2026, who knows what's ahead, but it feels as though things are only just getting started.

John Furrier

>> Well, Gemma, let's keep it rolling. We're going to go back to our next guest. Check out theCUBE on Instagram. Instagram handle is thecubewired. We'll be back with more after this short break.
