Still Pursuing the TradFi-DeFi Connection
Despite the increasing institutionalization of digital assets, there are still investors and fund managers who are hesitant to get involved due to a lack of understanding of the technical aspects. Maple Finance, however, aims to bridge this gap by simplifying the complexity of crypto. Even after the crypto crash that wiped out its total value locked (TVL), Maple remains committed to its mission. The company’s Alameda loan product was the first step in this direction, and now Maple is benefiting from cryptocurrency-friendly regulations in the Asia-Pacific region. The CEO of Maple, Sydney Powell, envisions a future where the company can offer credit and lending products with lower fees than traditional credit funds, making it an attractive option for family offices and institutions seeking exposure to the crypto market.
