A session on a key security challenge in scaling RWAs: exposure from shared pools. It covers how Euler’s modular vault architecture and the Euler Vault Kit give institutions flexible, isolated control over RWA credit markets.

DeFi solved lending but missed credit. This talk shows how programmable credit opens an interesting new design space beyond overcollateralized and private credit unlocking for neo finance and agentic commerce.

Why tokenized fund pilots stall in Europe and the 3 decisions that unlock production: governance model, custody architecture, and value chain integration.

Everyone is chasing the AI boom. But the real opportunity isn’t in the models, it’s in the compute that powers them. Tokenizing GPU infrastructure is creating the next wave of real-world yield in DeFi.

Bitcoin historically hasn’t been usable in DeFi. This talk explores how EVM-compatible Bitcoin layers change that. We’ll map out the new collateral landscape, compare security models, and explain how Ethereum protocols can integrate Bitcoin safely.

How emerging financial protocols evolve into institution-ready products through trusted controls, secure custody, and frameworks that translate digital asset innovation into compliant, scalable solutions for institutional engagement in the ecosystem.

The rapid expansion of DeFi yield sources, largely via tokenization - basis trades, AI funding, onchain credit, OTC discounts, demands more prudent risk pricing as transparency declines, shifting focus from headline APYs to verifiable reserves.

Web3 calls everything an RWA, but most tokens have zero enforceable rights. This talk clarifies how EU law defines real financial instruments—so investors and builders can understand what are the implications when they use or buy “RWA” tokens.

RWAs are redefining Web3, but static user personas can’t capture human complexity. This talk introduces the Human Orbit Model: A behavioral framework for designing inclusive, adaptive, and systematic UX that evolve with users.

Tokenized assets are tiny today and could increase ~1,000x over next five years. Grayscale offers its perspective on how to invest for this theme in digital assets.

An applied look at high-frequency quant trading in crypto: how market makers and arbitrageurs keep DeFi markets efficient, lessons from 7 years of building systems, and what this means for ETH as financial infrastructure.

Most MEV talks focus on transaction execution. This one looks at what happened afterward. I’ll show how the system actually behaved on mainnet: how solvers competed, where incentives misaligned, which MEV vectors vanished, etc.
