Good first day at #BinanceBlockchainWeek. In addition to seeing a Tesla Cyber truck at the front door, I also got to find out about the emerging trends in the #crypto space from big players like market maker Wintermute, as well as Coin Bureau, the co-founder of FDUSD and of course Binance.
Most of the trends fall under tokenization, with stablecoins and the monetization of #ai agents being the two I'm excited about. Gaming is also being seen as one of the major catalyts for Web3 adoption that could bring the next wave of users on chain. Prior to this it was just meme coins.
Web2 and tradfi still seem to be dragging their feet a bit when it comes to adoption, but the launch of crypto #ETFs is a major step forward, which is the general consensus here.
There has also been calls to rescue #Ethereum from becoming the Blackberry of blockchain.
Overall, excited about the progress in regulatory clarity. However, it still seems there's a fair amount of work to be done to legitimize crypto.
