Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson Holds Bitcoin, Ether, Sushiswap, Uniswap In Her Portfolio

Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson revealed on Monday her investment in a diverse range of cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), SushiSwap (CRYPTO: SUSHI) and Uniswap (CRYPTO: UNI), as she steered the company towards innovative blockchain applications, aiming to revolutionize asset management and democratize access to private markets.

In an interview with Fortune, she also emphasized the distinction between Bitcoin and blockchain, noting the latter’s potential to democratize access to private markets by reducing transactional friction.

This technology could unlock non-traditional asset classes and make existing products like ETFs more efficient.

Bitcoin Spot ETF, A Matter Of Time: Regarding the approval of the first Bitcoin spot ETF, Johnson stated it was in the hands of regulators focused on consumer protection.

She believed a spot ETF would be a more convenient and efficient way for investors to access Bitcoin.
