Institutional Bitcoin
summary
Panelists argue institutional adoption hinges on custody, credit and market plumbing, not slogans: BitGo handles spot and perpetual flows of $5–10B/day, one custodian claims to process 20% of on‑chain Bitcoin, and an OTC market maker reports 700 institutional clients. Recent deleveraging narrows basis from ~30% to near zero and cuts spreads by ~50%, so builds focus on regulated venues (d2x), electronic options, execution services, prime‑brokerage-like credit solutions, improved pricing and risk tooling.
