Kevin Warsh, the nominee to lead the Federal Reserve, has filed a 69-page financial disclosure that provides insight into his personal investments, including those in the cryptocurrency space. The document reveals that Warsh, through various venture fund structures, holds equity positions in over a dozen blockchain and digital asset companies. His portfolio includes investments in DeFi lending, decentralized derivatives, Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks, prediction markets, and Bitcoin payments infrastructure.
