Crypto expert on Warren pushing back against bitcoin in 401(k): Fidelity knows what’s good for their customers

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., calls Fidelity plan a 'risky and speculative' gamble

President John Wu of Ava Labs joined "Mornings with Maria" to discuss Fidelity's 401(k) Bitcoin plan after Sen. Elizabeth Warren's, D-Mass., raises concerns. Wu told host Maria Bartiromo on Monday that the financial services corporation "knows what's good" for their customers, arguing it would be a ‘bad move’ for government officials to push against this.

SEN. WARREN CALLS OUT FIDELITY OVER ITS BITCOIN 401(K) PUSH

JOHN WU: For every lawmaker that has issues with this and I think for Senator Warren, it's not just about bitcoin. She sees this probably as a gateway to all crypto, the whole asset class. For every senator that is against us, there's another one like Tuberville…who's now trying to do a financial freedoms act to protect this. And I think you and I were both in LA for the Milken conference. You saw the excitement between the enterprises and the financial services firms for this asset class. So I think putting it away from the access for 401(k)'s is a bad move.
