The Pillars of Institutional DeFi

The Pillars of Institutional DeFi

Learn why the next wave of Institutional DeFi will be built on solid primitives, not hype. This session breaks down six core pillars—technical and financial—that are shaping professional-grade infrastructure and unlocking real, scalable value as capital moves on-chain.

About the Webinar

In this replay, you’ll hear why the next wave of Institutional DeFi will be driven less by hype and more by a shared roadmap of foundational “primitives.” The session lays out how today’s market fragmentation and incentive mismatches create an opening for professional-grade infrastructure, and why building these components now positions participants to capture outsized value as capital shifts on-chain.

Those components break down into six pillars. 

On the technical front, frictionless user experience and seamless interoperability ensure institutions can access liquidity and move assets across chains with the ease they expect from legacy rails.
