"The real opportunity is you could actually reduce your balance sheet to fund the same activity by probably 20% on average. Just think about that from your return perspective. Because today, a good bank return, good return on equity is anywhere from 10 to 15%. That’s a good return on equity. Now imagine that they can fund the same activity with 20% less balance sheet. Just think about that. That is gigantic." - Yuval Rooz, Co-founder and CEO, Digital Asset With institutional players such as Larry Fink confirming the opportunity and the prediction of McKinsey that by 2030, the value of tokenized assets will soar to nearly $2 trillion USD. What is happening at the infrastructure level to support high value assets moving on-chain? And how far do we need to go to achieve non-crypto user adoption of tokenized assets at the predicted scale?

Dive into our latest paper from Manoj Ramia to explore: - The evolution of Howey and its application to digital assets - The flaws in the SEC's 2018 decentralization standard - How the FIT Act brings much-needed regulatory clarity - The implications for crypto innovators and blockchain projects View now: https://lnkd.in/eiEQyGM5
