About this episode of Fintech Insider:

On today's show, we're asking: Is crypto still the rebellious outsider in finance, or has it finally earned its seat at the boardroom table?

With tokenisation, stablecoins, and Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) emerging, crypto seems caught between financial freedom and government oversight. Is it still a revolutionary force, or has it become just another cog in the system?

Early scams and volatility kept institutions wary, but is crypto now maturing beyond speculation into a true financial backbone? And if so, is it ready to lead?
