As Wall Street moves on-chain, DeFi faces a $330 billion trust test it can’t dodge

Wall Street is moving towards tokenized securities, leaving decentralized finance (DeFi) to prove its viability under institutional scrutiny. Several major financial institutions, including ICE, WisdomTree, and the Fed, have developed tokenized platforms and systems, targeting DeFi's competitive position with features like 24/7 trading and instant settlement. This development aims to attract on-chain capital worth over $330 billion.
