Part 2: Digital Assets: From Creative Disruption to Market Adoption

-

Waves of innovation are nothing new. Since the crypto economy burst onto the scene, it has shifted our expectations of capital. To believers, crypto is inevitable in the future of finance. To skeptics, crypto is vulnerable, volatile and a passing fad. Under this spotlight, it is important to understand the market forces driving the development of a responsible digital assets industry and what blockchain technology has to offer. This session will explore what it will take to move the digital assets industry forward from the perspectives of asset managers, industry executives, investors, and regulators.
