Digital assets are still viewed as risky, volatile, and unsafe—in large part because there aren’t adequate risk frameworks in place that delineate how to approach them. Robert will share relevant BCG research and the risk framework that the firm has developed from those findings.
If tokenized RWAs are blockchain’s killer use case, the infrastructure must be very scalable, and as safe as possible. This panel will discuss the current state of cross chain infrastructure & blockchain security, looking at how it has evolved over the past few years, and what still needs to be done to ensure future success.
In conversation with David Wachsman, Eric will share insights into his current work and EdenBase’s approach to innovation, exploring its goals and vision for a supercharged future.
Exploring tax concerns in blockchain and tokenization involves complex ownership and cross-border elements. Key issues include the classification of digital assets, treatment of tokenized RWA for income and capital gains, and reporting requirements for blockchain transactions. Clear guidelines are essential for accurate tax reporting and compliance.
America has always been in the forefront of the most important innovations. Could tokenization of all assets at mass scale, along with US Dollar denominated stable coins be how America leads the way in the digital asset space.
This conversation will explore the evolving landscape of private credit, private debt, and investment funds and the role blockchain is playing in this dynamic sector. Industry experts will discuss the rise of alternative lending solutions, structuring private debt deals, the role of funds in facilitating access to these markets, and how blockchain can streamline processes across all of these areas.
This fireside chat with RACE will delve into the project’s approach to providing a full-stack solution to address the growing impact of RWAs on financial markets. The conversation will explore how RWAs are reshaping investment strategies by unlocking new opportunities for HNWI globally. Through engaging discussions and real-life examples, the discussion will provide valuable insights into the future of asset management and the opportunities RACE and RWAs present for investors and professionals alike.
This group of panelists will discuss the best strategy to achieve the global adoption tokenization that so many analyses and experts have predicted. If tokenization is to reach $2T or more by 2030, what are the actual steps we need to take to get there? What assets should be prioritized first and what other considerations must be made to bring tokenization to a global scale?
This panel will explore the regulatory landscape in the US and the need for proper guidelines for the country to remain competitive with others in the digital asset landscape. The discussion will touch on global coordination strategies and draw on real-world examples to emphasize the need for the US to focus efforts on navigating regulatory complexities and avoiding fragmented risk frameworks.
This panel of crypto VCs will discuss the funding opportunities present in the RWA landscape and key considerations to take into account, including emerging opportunities and the impact of regulatory changes. These experts will discuss where the value lies in RWA projects today, how they’ve evolved, and what is still lacking and explore what’s to come.
This panel will discuss public mistrust fueled by cryptocurrency scandals and explore ways to overcome misconceptions and negative perceptions of the industry. Panelists will strive to answer the question: What is needed to improve blockchain technology’s reputation with stakeholders from regulators, to asset managers to retail investors?
This intimate conversation will focus on the infrastructure needed to support a global market for tokenized assets, ensuring efficient, secure, and scalable trading environments.
This panel will focus on the innovations required to onboard the next billion users into the blockchain ecosystem, emphasizing the importance of account abstraction in creating more seamless processes and simplifying the way users manage their digital assets. Panelists will also discuss current barriers to entry for new users, as well as the need to design principles for user-friendly digital wallets and interfaces to reach widespread adoption in the industry.
In a final, anticipated fireside chat, Christopher Giancarlo will explore how upcoming elections could reshape the regulatory environment for RWAs and the broader digital finance ecosystem.
