However, he warned that these benefits were lost in crypto, where real-time settlement occurs. The CEO said the mismatch between the crypto and legacy systems could create a Liquidity Crunch for these institutions:

“Types of tolerance of fault are built on the system for heritage factors, where systems do not update in real-time. In crypto, everything should be real-time, and it’s just a different animal.

I remember how the Titans of Finance reacted when the bear market inevitably arrived again. I know some optimistic and think it will never come. I have arrived since 2012, so I know it will come again, ”he added.
