Wall Street’s latest crypto convert just placed its first bets—and they’re big. Cantor Fitzgerald, the financial giant that once scoffed at Bitcoin, just executed its inaugural transactions in a $2 billion digital asset lending business. Talk about a change of heart.

Why the pivot? Maybe those 10% yields on BTC collateral finally looked better than another round of yacht-fueled stock buybacks. The institutional floodgates are open—whether the crypto purists like it or not.

One question remains: When the next crash comes, will Cantor’s ’risk management’ team remember they’re dealing with crypto—not another round of mortgage-backed securities?
