Lightning Round: The Future of Crypto Asset Management
summary
Claims that crypto asset management is finally institutionalizing with concrete fixes: a new BlockFi prime product ships in May to reduce exchange settlement friction, liquidity firms support 30 products listed in a month, and industry scale is about 40bn/4bn/<1bn (asset management/hedge funds/long-short alpha). Managers use shorts and overlays to hit allocator limits (5–10% monthly drawdown vs routine 20–30%), and the missing piece remains a scalable prime brokerage and TradFi–DeFi bridges before big institutional inflows arrive.
