As such, Genesis Global Trading – an institutional over-the-counter cryptocurrency trading and lending firm – decided to hit the pause button on credit extension amidst the coronavirus-tied market chaos. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Recently, Genesis has started to extend credit on a client-by-client basis but is acting gingerly in the market it helped pioneer – at least for a few weeks to figure out where the crypto credit market stands. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Moreover, while Genesis pulls back, its rivals have been willing to give out loans at significantly reduced collateral. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode of the Scoop, Genesis CEO Michael Moro discusses the firm's rationale behind these critical decisions, a recent phone call it received from its regulator FINRA, and how the need for employees to work remotely has impacted its business. </span></p><br /><span class="copyright"><p>© 2023 The Block Crypto, Inc.
