"The Hash" hosts discuss a report from Bloomberg that former Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison recently hired Stephanie Avakian and law firm WilmerHale. Avakian is a former enforcement division chief at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) who worked on several high-profile cases against figures such as Elizabeth Holmes and Elon Musk. Plus, Cathie Wood's Ark Investment Management said in an email it bought 78,982 shares in cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase (COIN), its first investment in the crypto exchange in a month.
