Episode notes
Custodial Records And Tiny Fidelity Bonds
- Traditional custodial systems often rely on small fidelity bonds that vastly undercollateralize assets.
- This creates a fragile 'house of cards' where ownership records and insurance are insufficient safeguards.
Adopt Direct Ownership And Key Management
- Encourage users to hold direct digital ownership of assets to avoid losses in bank or custodian failures.
- Use wallets and key management services for recovery, while institutions focus on admin and compliance.
Stablecoin + Issuance Toolkit Lowers Friction
- Tether provides both tokenized asset issuance tools and a widely used tokenized cash on-ramps like USDT.
- Combining asset tokens with liquid stablecoins reduces friction and unlocks broad distribution to crypto-native users.
