Adam also unpacks Fireblocks' vision for tokenization—from traditional assets like T-bills to unconventional ones like investment-grade wine—and how interoperability between blockchains will unlock liquidity in the years ahead.Security remains a cornerstone of the conversation, as Adam reflects on lessons from high-profile hacks (including the recent Bybit incident) and how Fireblocks' infrastructure prioritizes risk mitigation without compromising efficiency. Looking forward, he predicts 2025 will be a year of decisive action for banks and asset managers, with stablecoins and tokenization moving from pilot projects to core infrastructure—even if the full impact may take years to materialize.PODCAST INFO:
