Todd Morley, a co-founder and former executive of finance behemoth Guggenheim Partners, is turning his attention to blockchain.

The financier is backing a new blockchain tower in midtown Manhattan, he said Monday in a Bloomberg Television interview. The skyscraper will incorporate a wireless network that improves access to digital ledgers, a set of technologies that underpin digital currencies like Bitcoin, he said. The building at 111 West 57th Street will include a museum for NFTs, the digital assets linked to art, music files or other assets.
