In collaboration with DL News, Eterna Partners recently hosted an exclusive crypto mixer, bringing together some of the prominent leaders in digital assets to explore the outlook for the industry in 2025. Set against the backdrop of the recent U.S. election results, the event provided a platform for thought-provoking discussions on market maturity, regulatory clarity, and the role of institutional players in shaping the future of crypto.
Held in London, the evening featured a strong lineup of speakers, including:
- Thomas Restout, Group CEO, B2C2
- Katey Neate, COO Digital Assets, BNY
- Chris Tyrer, Head of Institutional, Bullish
- Arnab Sen, Co-Founder and CEO, GFO-X
Moderated by Trista Kelley, Editor-in-Chief at DL News, the panel addressed some of the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing the crypto industry.
Key Takeaways Discussed Include:
Regulatory Clarity:
The panel stressed the critical need for clear regulations to enable institutional adoption. While the EU’s MiCA is a positive step, U.S. uncertainty continues to hold back progress.
Building Market Infrastructure:
Institutional-grade solutions—like advanced reporting, custodian services, and credit intermediation—are essential for aligning crypto with traditional financial markets.
Institutional Demand:
Despite challenges, demand for crypto products remains strong, with significant interest from traditional finance players looking for regulated, accessible offerings.
Innovation Drives Growth:
The industry is rapidly solving structural challenges, with optimism that the next 12–24 months will bring transformative advancements.
At Eterna Partners, we are proud to facilitate these vital conversations and look forward to continuing to engage with industry leaders as we collectively shape the next chapter of digital assets.
