Talking Tokens: Crypto, Onchain Finance, Investing · Why Aave V4 Is Built Like a Central Bank for DeFi | Stani Kulechov · 30 Jun 2026 podcast

Um and also there's a lot of regulatory work that is involved uh uh uh in i i in that uh category.

So I think we will see movements uh

and and and and and growth um in a more sort of a ladder and step by step basis.

But I think the the uh i on the institutional side when you see one market participant taking action and and bringing something new, it does create a network effect for others to actually

start taking more uh uh measures towards uh tokenizing assets.

And I think there's a lot of interesting projects at the moment and initiatives uh on on that side.

So it is growing steadily, um but at some point it will just uh exponentially grow once there is actually really good model for that.

I I think all all institutions uh all institutions should be looking into uh on chain and uh tokenized assets, into DeFi and um in the past twelve months I I don't think I have met a bank uh that doesn't have a digital asset team and are thinking already uh all the way to DeFi.

And that is this is really good sign because uh I think um

Going back a few years ago, a a lot of the uh you know, teams were focusing um

uh in in experimentations on private blockchains uh and and sort of like a one off pilot uh transactions, but as of today a lot of these banks and asset managers are actually thinking of of of building products and what to launch.

Um so it's it's it's getting very serious.

Um and I think that's uh that's the way that we can get uh and see some results.

Yeah, that is one of the one of the um most exciting things for me as a developer.

Um so obviously Aave is is also building um a a consumer app where you download a uh a mobile app, you can sign in with your email, phone number, um, link your bank account and deposit directly to Aave.

But all this uh infrastructure that we build for for this sort of uh use case

is also available for um fintechs and and um institutions that really want to bring defi in a in a in the most seamless seamless way to their to their users.

And for me what's exciting is that anything to you actually build on that stack uh is reusable and that is where uh DeFi will win because um anyone can actually tap into this uh liquidity

network effects uh and that just compounds to the next uh sort of uh uh uh participant.

It's it it's kind of uh reminds me uh a bit the the the credit card network model.
