As institutions from corporates to hedge funds move into cryptoassets, market structure is transforming to support these new participants.

These sophisticated players require deeper liquidity, improved capital efficiency and reduced counterparty risk.

Our Head of Strategy, Asen Kostadinov, recently attended the DigitalAssetsLIVE Summit, an event hosted by Hedgeweek and InstitutionalAssetManager. Asen joined a stellar lineup of speakers in the digital asset space including representatives from SkyBridge Capital, Nickel Digital Asset Management, GSR and others, to assess the opportunities and challenges in building an institutional marketplace for digital assets.

For those of you who missed the event, a recording of Asen's fireside chat with Nick Evans, MD at Global Fund Media, is now available to watch on our YouTube. In this insightful but condensed discussion, you'll hear Asen discuss:.

1. Where we are in terms of the institutionalisation of the cryptoasset class

2. The stumbling blocks that could get in the way for institutional adoption and engagement in the space

3. The current regulatory landscape
