In this conversation with CoinFund's Chris Perkins, David Duong, CFA, Global Head of Investment Research at Coinbase, explores how these things are shaping and solidifying crypto’s future. This discussion explores: * Why investors are being pushed further out the risk curve as cash no longer protects against inflation * How stablecoins are becoming the core settlement layer for tokenized assets * Why regulation may be slow and messy, but remains structurally viable * How tokenization is unlocking access to private credit and private markets * Why geopolitical shocks don't matter to immediate crypto price action * Why Bitcoin wallet movements may reflect quantum-risk mitigation, not weakening conviction Rather than a single catalyst, David explains why crypto’s next move will come from a confluence of forces converging into a tipping point that’s already forming across real-world assets. 💡 Even as financial infrastructure evolves, hard assets still matter.
