Manage episode 508134646 series 3608599
Join us for a special edition of The Bank Tellers, where we explore the intersection of TradFi and DeFi!
Money20/20’s Head of Audience Development, Micky Tesfaye, we dive deep into the rapidly evolving relationship between traditional finance and decentralized finance with Paul Brody, EY's Global Blockchain Leader. As the financial world stands at a critical juncture following the passage of the Genius Act, Paul shares invaluable insights on how the competitive landscape is transforming.
Discover why we're at the "dam just broke phase" of blockchain adoption in financial services, with major institutions from JPMorgan to Walmart rushing to develop stablecoins and tokenized deposits. Paul explains why the distinction between TradFi and DeFi is gradually disappearing as organizations on opposing sides begin to resemble each other.
Key topics include:
- How regulatory clarity is accelerating adoption across the financial ecosystem
- Why blockchain is transitioning from buzzword to essential "plumbing" for financial services
- The misconceptions both TradFi and DeFi players have about each other
- How traditional banks can leverage their existing customer relationships as "portals" into DeFi
- The potential for AI and blockchain to create autonomous commerce systems that could outpace human-driven transactions within five years
Perfect timing for Money20/20 USA attendees looking to understand the forces reshaping finance!
