Ep 38 | DeFi’s Institutional Moment with Johann Bornman of Metamask & Pierre Legrand of 11:FS

In the early days of the internet, the Italian government was opposed to the fact that anyone could have a website and in the United States, Congress tried to pass a law to say that you needed an FCC License to have a website. It used to be a radical idea that the internet should be open… Now DeFi is doing the same for the financial economy, as protocols built atop public blockchain networks radically increase efficiency and transparency while widening the aperture on who can participate in the global financial system. But are decades-old financial regulations holding back DeFi’s institutional moment? In this episode of The Money Movement, Jeremy joins Johann Bornman, Institutional Product Lead at ConsenSys Metamask on a panel hosted by Pierre Legrand, Partner, Consulting & Research, 11:FS.
