I attended yet another industry networking event hosted by one of the world's largest custodian banks.
They are a major player in asset management and securities services.
Among other topics, they identified key trends in modern finance:
- Instant payments
- Digital transformation
- Resilience in market turbulence
Bitcoin wasn't mentioned.
I spoke with their treasury lead in Europe and their global collateral head. They wanted to talk about tokenization and digital assets.
Although some banks are becoming more accepting of Bitcoin, I still find that many are far behind.
I don't oppose it at all. For nearly all people in finance, it signifies a complete paradigm shift.
Bitcoin is the only trend in finance/economics, and in this firm's case, aligns with all their identified trends.
