This panel will dive into whether RWAs are the long-awaited bridge between TradFi and DeFi, or another overhyped narrative? What makes RWAs compelling to investors, and what infrastructure is needed for scale? How are compliance, custody, and liquidity being addressed across different models? Who are the key players, and how are regulators responding? Why is institutional interest growing even in a tough market? We’ll explore the core opportunities, risks, and frontier use cases shaping this next phase of crypto adoption.
Join us for an insightful discussion and for HOT TAKES with pioneers at the forefront of Real World Asset Tokenization. A Q&A session will follow the panel. Indian Food along with light alcohol will also be served.
