Key Takeaways:

- Traditional Financial Service Providers in DeFi: While fully native DeFi assets are gaining popularity, we discuss why the involvement of traditional financial service providers, like brokers and custodians, could be the key to driving widespread adoption of DeFi technology in finance.
- Parallels with the World Wide Web: Drawing parallels with the evolution of the internet, we explore how the rise of on-chain securities and decentralized exchanges could streamline financial infrastructure and bypass traditional intermediaries.
- Wholesale Finance and Trusting Public Networks: We consider the potential impact of blockchain technology on wholesale finance and how public blockchain networks may serve as a mutual trust layer for bridging different jurisdictions.
