The Evolution of Crypto Capital Markets & Where DeFi is Today
DeFi proved that markets can run without intermediaries. But execution, clearing, margin and collateral — the parts of capital markets that actually move size — are still mostly off-chain. So where does durable value really accrue as this stack migrates?
Ivailo joins us to map where crypto capital markets are today, what's genuinely moving on-chain, and what stays hybrid for longer.
We'll cover:
🔷 Where durable value accrues next — execution, settlement/clearing, or collateral & margin infrastructure
🔷 Pure on-chain venues vs. hybrid models that keep traditional rails for larger tickets
🔷 What's still blocking institutional order flow and bigger ticket sizes from moving on-chain
🔷 Structural gaps in institutional stablecoin liquidity, FX conversion & atomic settlement
🔷 Programmable markets: tighter spreads and capital efficiency, or new fragmentation and basis risk?
