Passive vs. Active Investing in Crypto

In this episode of Amun's "State of Crypto" the Amun team (Hany Rashwan, Ophelia Snyder, Laurent Kssis and Hansen Wang) got together to reinvigorate the age-old dilemma between active and passive investing - but instead of looking at traditional markets, we applied the same principles to the crypto markets. As crypto markets are open 24/7, 365 days a year, and with a lack of infrastructure compared to the traditional financial markets, investing in crypto is much different than investing in stocks, bonds or commodities. Historically speaking, actively managed funds have had a hard time beating Bitcoin, the industry benchmark. But is this due to higher fees or lower liquidity? Tune in to find out.
