At the Token2049 LONGITUDE event, industry leaders discussed Bitcoin's potential to become a central part of financial infrastructure. Key figures such as Arthur Hayes, Joseph Lubin, and Stani Kulechov emphasized the growing institutional adoption and the role of digital asset treasuries (DATs) and DeFi infrastructure, including Aave's $70 billion in net deposits, as significant drivers. They also explored how stablecoins, Ethereum-based tools, and tokenized assets could be integrated into traditional finance, although the timeline for widespread adoption remains uncertain.
