      Digital Assets and Banking: Adoption (and Disruption) is Accelerating

      1 PM EST

      2024 has been a dramatic year for digital assets. Bitcoin prices have hit all-time highs, and so has crypto transactional activity. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have become a launched reality. FTX investors received more back than they invested. Stablecoins have found a product-market fit (they now hold more U.S. debt than Germany). Infrastructure improvements have increased capacity and drastically reduced transaction costs (sending USDC on Base costs less than a cent on average v. an average cost of $44 to send an international wire transfer). And, DeFi is increasing in popularity, attracting even more developers than blockchain infrastructure. Indeed, crypto has become a key political issue in the election year. The relevance and promise of digital assets have never been higher.
