The inaugural Crypto & Digital Assets Summit Asia, co-organised by the Financial Times and The Banker, will convene leaders from global and Asian financial institutions, crypto and digital assets leaders and regulators to ascertain the path to institutional adoption, asset tokenisation and regulatory implementation.

Highlights from our London edition

Digital assets are re-emerging as a transformative solution for mainstream finance, with bitcoin ETFs and a resurgent crypto market driving new optimism in the sector. Asia's financial centres are becoming major hubs for these assets, backed by regulatory support and cutting-edge financial innovation.

An increasing number of financial institutions are exploring blockchain solutions to expand their services, navigating through an intensifying regulatory landscape. While customer safeguarding and security concerns remain, recent market failures have helped the industry distinguish between credible solutions and scams. This renewed market confidence is attracting a new calibre of discerning stakeholders engaging with digital assets as the ecosystem seeks to cleanse itself of past vulnerabilities.
