During the interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin, Dixon shared his insights on various topics related to the crypto industry, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC)’s decision on Bitcoin ETFs, the NFT market, crypto regulation, and blockchain technology. His views were directed mainly at how blockchain technology could transform the way we use the internet and how it could also have a major impact on the global economy.

While discussing NFTs, Dixon expressed optimism about the technology’s prospects despite the recent decline in the market. He opined that NFTs have the potential to transform a wide range of industries beyond digital art and that their full potential is yet to be realized. According to him, the NFT market will continue to evolve in the years to come. 

Dixon also said that the U.S. SEC’s Decision to allow spot Bitcoin ETFs is a positive development, but it’s not the end goal. In his view, the widespread adoption of blockchain is more crucial than regulatory measures, and the real potential of the technology has not been fully discovered.
