#CryptoRoundTableRemarks

1. Macroeconomic Outlook

“The Fed’s shifting stance on rates is a tailwind for digital assets, especially as inflation shows signs of easing.”

“Risk assets, including crypto, are sensitive to rate expectations — and we’re seeing Bitcoin and Ethereum react more like macro proxies than ever before.”

📌 2. Regulation and Policy

“Clearer U.S. regulatory frameworks remain essential for institutional adoption.”

“There's progress, but we still need better definitions around tokens, staking, and custody.”

📌 3. Institutional Involvement

“We’re seeing a steady pipeline of traditional finance entering the space — from ETFs to tokenized treasuries.”

“Ethereum remains the preferred platform for real-world asset tokenization.”

📌 4. Market Structure

“Liquidity fragmentation across exchanges is still a challenge. Consolidation or cross-chain interoperability may help.”

“Stablecoins are central to crypto’s use case — but U.S. legislation is lagging behind innovation.”
