CRYPTO 101

About this episode

Jesse Knutson of Bitfinex Securities breaks down why tokenization is becoming inevitable across global markets. He explains how real-time settlement, investor control, and global access give tokenized securities a major edge over traditional finance. Jesse highlights why emerging markets are moving faster than the U.S. due to capital needs and regulatory flexibility. The episode concludes with a long-term view that tokenized and traditional markets will gradually merge over the coming decades.
