With this as the backdrop, , the third forum of its kind, hosted a conversation with around 30 professionals in the digital asset arena to promote cohesion among industry experts and academics. Chatham House Rule was observed to encourage open dialogue.
The Report serves as an informative summary of how each of the aforementioned parties can work together to take a positive step forward. The paper extracts and highlights opinions from these professionals on the tokenization of real-world assets, DeFi in the context of real-world assets and smart contracts, and disclosure, regulation, and tax.
Regulation was hotly debated. Strong opinions and educated suggestions emerged across the range of topics."This roundtable was an exciting and frank conversation among industry participants and academia experts, which was exactly what we had hoped for," reported Joseph. "But we should go further than a discussion, and encourage hands-on learning for industry, academia, and regulators so that regulators can create useful guardrails for these technologies and new products."
The group concluded that continued discussion is essential so that industry can help regulators navigate the changing landscape and scholars can deepen their understanding of how to proceed. "An open, thoughtful conversation like this where people from varying backgrounds talk to rather than at each other is invaluable and necessary," concluded Joseph.
