Investor Town Hall: Security, Reputation, ESG and Other Barriers to Institutional Adoption
summary
The panel treats the Terra collapse as a hard data point — $60 billion wiped out — that clarifies fund risk management and accelerates stablecoin scrutiny. Institutions report concrete actions: some began investing in 2019, others since last fall, Fairfax lists nine crypto VC commitments over four years, and funds already deliver distributions in kind (BTC, ETH, SOL). Biggest operational hurdles are custody and audit readiness — legal agreements and custodian onboarding take months, so teams build institutional one‑ETH holding and custody frameworks.
