10/ The first wave built the infrastructure. The second wave—AI agents, regulatory frameworks, and institutional DeFi products—will make it the default settlement and liquidity layer for global capital. The question is not if. It's how fast. Let’s onboard the next billion users.

9/ Institutions are already here, and deploying. BlackRock's BUIDL Fund holds $2.5B+ in TVL. Maple Finance has $2.7B AUM with zero defaults.

"Is Institutional DeFi Killing Permissionless Finance?" Space Key Insights: Matt Hougan @matt_hougan @bitwise: Tokenized assets are structurally more efficient, with important theoretical benefits, but spiky adoption will only come when the traditional system is exposed as not fit for purpose. Ian De Bode @iandebode @OndoFinance: Many are so ingrained in their own ways they struggle to imagine what's possible. We're at a moment where crypto, tokenized commodities, tokenized stocks & ETFs all live on the same base financial layer. David Duong @DavidDuong @coinbase: Decentralization is a feature, not a bug. Bringing TradFi assets into the crypto ecosystem doesn't mean abandoning foundational roots. DeFi's permission mezzanine is how institutional capital comes in.

It was great speaking at @EthCC yesterday 🇫🇷 I firmly believe DeFi is about to take off, the next 24 months will tell! Meanwhile I listen to a few presentations at ETHCC this year, the quality is great. It’s a great conference as always. Moreover, there is less noise this year.

James Wo @realjameswo , Founder & CEO of Digital Finance Group (DFG), gave the talk "DeFi 2.0: The Institutional Era of Intelligent, Multi-Chain Finance" at EthCC9 @EthCC . DeFi has moved from experiment to infrastructure. The barriers that once kept institutions out—scalability, compliance, custody, and regulation—are largely solved. The question is no longer if institutions will adopt DeFi, but how fast. Watch the video: youtube.com/watch?v=dMwNRo… #EthCC #EthCC9 #EthCC2026 #DeFi #InstitutionalDeFi #RWA
