3 Ways Crypto Will Change Banking and Investing Forever
summary
Three concrete shifts: use tokenized real-world assets (including Bitcoin as “ultimate” collateral) to create standardized collateral for loans; use a DeFi marketplace with no off switch to lend (deposit to pools and earn yield), borrow against that collateral at higher LTVs, and swap assets; and use MPC vaults / separately managed accounts so client assets sit off the custodian’s balance sheet. Claim: Abra has SEC approval to offer SMAs in the U.S. and processes billions in trades, enabling access to yield and credit without bank liabilities.
