A @money2020 Fave🔥
Enjoyed moderating session about “The New Intersection of Money: Where TradFi and DeFi Converge.”
Excellent insights from authors Scarlett Sieber, Virginia Pereira Alvarez, Dhanum Nursigadoo about transformation of global markets & financial infrastructure.

Blockchain Foundation Executive Director @cmesi moderated a session during @money2020: “The New Intersection of Money: Where TradFi and DeFi Converge.”
The discussion with three of the authors was followed by a book signing with the visionaries who lead content for Money20/20.
Truly an honor to be part of the intimate group of industry leaders selected for the inaugural @money2020 RiseUp Executive Summit.
This type of convening is important as female visionaries command the digital finance arena. We left the forum inspired, motivated, and connected.

I’m proud to be part of the RiseUp network, an ecosystem that Tracey Davies, President of @money2020, launched 8 years ago. This morning she reflected that when she took the helm a decade ago, female registration was at 10%. That number is now about 40%.
What a powerful legacy!

The Clarity Act failing was a big loss, but losing Senators Lummis and Tillis makes the path forward uncertain.
Without their bipartisan work, market structure legislation wouldn’t have gotten as far as it did.

Greetings from @money2020 in Vegas. A key theme in the programming this year is the stampede of banks into digital assets - with the new stablecoin law and tokenization guidance as top drivers. Instead of competition, the focus in on network-effects. More observations to follow!
