At the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, Kelly Intelligence Kevin Kelly, CEO of Bitwise Management Management Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise Management Management Hunter Horsley, consultant of Bitgo Mike Mike Belshe, consultant of WBTC Justin Sun, and consultant of Justin Sun talked about the future of global financial products.
Hunter Horsley said that as regulatory situations change, we will enter a new chapter in 2025.
“In the U.S., wealth managers manage $30 to 60 trillion,” Hosley said. “If wealth managers allocate 1% to the space on behalf of their customers, it helps their customers get hundreds of trillions of dollars in opportunities.”
Justin Sun stressed the importance of integrating Bitcoin into a decentralized financing (DEFI) platform:
“RAW BITCOIN is a way to get your bitcoin into a smart contract platform,” Sun said. “You can use bitcoin as collateral you borrow like Stablecoin, you borrow other major cryptocurrency tokens and of course generate revenue on the bitcoins you hold because bitcoin is the proof of the network.”
“Any transaction you can see in the blockchain, all reserve addresses are available on the blockchain. It is secure and transparent while being smart.”
Mike Belshe elaborates on the fundamental elements that make Stablecoin successful, especially when using Bitcoin in this case.
“Whether you’re talking about USD or Bitcoin, it’s a good stability, and it’s your liquidity in the global market,” Belshe said.
Horsley continues to say we will see more companies adopting this and putting hundreds of thousands of bitcoins into more balance sheets.
“Companies are buying Bitcoin,” Hosley commented. “This is an extraordinary theme this year. As of the first quarter of this year, 79 publicly traded companies put Bitcoin on their balance sheets. More than 600,000 bitcoins, only 21 million bitcoins. That’s a lot of bitcoins.”
“The progress we make in the United States is really important because we all further encourage people around the world to enter the Bitcoin industry,” Justin Sun said.
“Once Bitcoin passes this stage and adoption in the U.S. will accelerate that option globally,” Sun said.
