CINCINNATI, OH – Michael Hiles, the CEO of 10XTS, took part in an insightful panel discussion titled “Digital Assets as Equity Shares and Securities,” hosted by Financial Poise™ on October 15, 2024. The webinar featured industry experts including David Lopez-Kurtz of Croake Fairchild, Larry Florio of 1kx, and Richard Johnson of Texture Capital.
The discussion delved into two critical issues shaping the future of digital assets:
- The potential for digital equities to supplant current ownership structures for public equity shares
- The concentration of digital asset values into “approved” assets like Bitcoin (BTC) as newly vetted trading platforms help BTC prices reach new heights
As the landscape of finance evolves, the panelists explored how digital assets could disrupt existing systems. They examined the current structure where public equity shares are often recorded and managed by entities such as the Depository Trust Company (DTC) through its nominee Cede & Co., and discussed whether digital assets can offer a more efficient and transparent alternative.
The panel also addressed the implications of regulatory approval for certain digital assets trading on futures exchanges overseen by the SEC and CFTC. They debated the potential for these assets to overshadow competitors and emerge as dominant global currencies.
