About this episode
Jesse Knutson of Bitfinex Securities breaks down why tokenization is becoming inevitable across global markets. He explains how real-time settlement, investor control, and global access give tokenized securities a major edge over traditional finance. Jesse highlights why emerging markets are moving faster than the U.S. due to capital needs and regulatory flexibility. The episode concludes with a long-term view that tokenized and traditional markets will gradually merge over the coming decades.Check out Webroot: https://webroot.com/CRYPTO101Check out Gemini Exchange: https://gemini.comCheck out Quince: https://quince.com/CRYPTO101Get my #1 altcoin pick for this month.Get immediate access to my entire crypto portfolio for just $1.00 today!
