  "account": "Crypto today mirrors the early days of mutual funds in India, according to Vikaas M. Sachdeva, CEO of BitDelta India. Sachdeva, a seasoned asset manager, transitioned from mutual funds to crypto, emphasizing the need for evangelization and education. He likens crypto's current regulatory environment to that of mutual funds in the 1990s, highlighting the importance of building structures and awareness. Sachdeva explains his journey through the asset management industry, noting how each shift opened new investor opportunities. He believes that crypto is now at the same turning point as mutual funds were in the 1990s, and with proper education and market structure, the industry has great potential to grow.",
