Dollar digital currencies have had a huge impact on cryptocurrency markets and are likely to continue to shape the digital asset industry and the global economy. How do Asian markets approach this phenomenon and where do they see the future of decentralized finance heading?

The developments of DeFi could cascade into commercial finance faster than anyone anticipates, while decentralized credit provisions and new risk management and transparency systems will play increasingly important roles as we shift from the speculative phase to the utility phase of the Internet of Money.

To share all in this episode of The Money Movement, Jeremy is joined by Annabelle Huang, Managing Partner of the Amber Group*.
