Listen Later

Institutional DeFi is no longer just a thought experiment—it’s taking shape behind closed doors and in pilot projects across the globe.

On Industry InsightXin Song, CEO of GSR, a global leader in digital asset markets joins Lynlee Foo to unpack why major financial institutions are getting serious about decentralised finance. From Singapore’s Project Guardian to BlackRock’s tokenised funds, we explore the forces accelerating institutional DeFi adoption—and what’s still holding it back.

Xin explains how GSR is bridging the gap between traditional and decentralised markets, what tokenised real-world assets mean for liquidity and risk, and why regulatory progress is key to unlocking scale.

Whether you’re in finance, fintech, or just DeFi-curious, listen to this conversation to find out what’s really happening behind the buzz.
