It’s been a very busy week for events. Greatly enjoyed chairing a panel last night about the #crypto and #digitalcurrency outlook for 2024 with Eric van Miltenburg of Ripple and Alice L. of CoinMarketCap at Paris Blockchain Week's press launch event, kindly hosted by BCB Group. The outlook appears broadly positive for 2024 with the known unknowns of both the US Presidential election and the UK General Election providing a few uncertainties about what’s in store on the regulatory front. Paris Blockchain Week is 9-12 April just shortly ahead of the #bitcoin halving which will surely be hotly debated, as well as #CBDCs #stablecoins #tokenisation, real world use cases for #blockchain and the role of #AI. And we all know Paris in Springtime is the best place to be. Still time to get a ticket: https://lnkd.in/euSy37Mm 🇫🇷

Should Cryptocurrencies Be Regulated? 🔐 As #blockchain and #cryptocurrencies continue to evolve, the question of #regulation becomes more critical than ever. Are we ready to secure this space without undermining its core of #decentralisation? ✴️ That’s the big debate at the heart of our upcoming PUBLIC TALK: Decentralised Economy and Regulation — Blockchain & Crypto on November 19th 📌 https://lnkd.in/dPEFxecv One of our featured speakers, Yuriy Brisov, Partner at Digital & Analogue Partners and Co-founder of #CryptoMap, shares his opinion on this topic: 💬 "On one side, restrictive regulation risks strangling innovation, potentially turning #crypto into just another fiat currency—controlled and manipulated. On the other hand, without regulation, we face inevitable problems like tax evasion, #fraud, and copyright violations. We’ve already seen this play out in cases like #FTX’s collapse, #Binance’s fines, and investigations into platforms like #OpenSea and #Uniswap." 🗓️https://lnkd.in/dPEFxecv ✅ Mark your calendar and join the Talk to discover the future of #CryptoRegulation!

Takeaway from Financial Times Crypto and Digital Assets Summit Perhaps one of the most attended event by the institutions in traditional finance industry, this year's Crypto and Digital Assets Summit displayed an increased attention on blockchain adoption. ➡ Conversations around tokenisation and RWAs dominated the conference as institutional players expressed interest in increasing capital efficiency and reducing costs via this specific application of blockchain technologies. ➡ The most interesting discussion at the conference was about the latent systemic risks brought about by regulators' insufficient embracing of the new asset class, as well as their tough stance that has deterred large financial institutions from banking companies in this industry. ➡ Finally, we explore the divide between institutions and “crypto natives”. This divide goes beyond sector interest or technological pursuits within crypto; it is fundamental as it strikes at the core values that crypto natives hold dear. Read more from our research analyst and investor, Rick M as he shares his insight from the conference in this week's Weekly Hot Take.

I recently had the privilege of attending the enlightening Crypto2030 lecture at the World Economic Forum 2024 an event that delved deeply into the future of the crypto-economy. A key focus was the evolving role of Central Exchanges over the next decade, especially concerning their development and challenges in risk management. One of the highlights was hearing from Topp Jirayut Srupsrisopa™ The CEO of Thailand's largest crypto exchange BitKub. His insights into the market dynamics and future strategies were incredibly enlightening. Additionally, Dorian Vincileoni the Business Development Lead at KuCoin, provided valuable perspectives on the integration and adaptation of blockchain technologies in current financial systems. The discussions also explored the future role of banks in the ever-changing landscape of blockchain technology. The knowledge and perspectives I gained from these discussions have deepened my understanding of the upcoming challenges and opportunities in the crypto space. I am excited to apply these insights and see how they will shape the future of our beloved industry. #WorldEconomicForum #Crypto2030 #Blockchain #FutureOfFinance
