Crypto Finance CEO: Traditional Banks at Least 5 Years Behind Crypto-Native Platforms in DeFi Innovation
On March 25, Stijn Vander Straeten—CEO of Crypto Finance, a Deutsche B?rse subsidiary—said traditional banks are at least five years behind crypto-native platforms in decentralized finance (DeFi) innovation.
Large institutions typically wait for regulatory clarity before entering related markets, so full DeFi adoption by banks could still take 5 to 10 years, he noted.
Crypto platforms already offer features like weekend trading and instant settlement, he pointed out, while the traditional financial system remains constrained by outdated infrastructure—such as T+2 settlement cycles.

Bitunix Analyst: Energy Suppression Mismatched with War Uncertainty, BTC Maintains Liquidity Range Structure
March 25
Markets are currently caught between two key forces: policy efforts to cap energy prices and unresolved Middle East risks.
- U.S. relaxed gasoline regulations; EU delayed its Russian oil ban (both aimed at curbing inflation and oil prices).
- U.S.-Iran talks still unmaterialized; ongoing military deployments prevent risk premiums from fully unwinding.
Funds have flowed to safe havens like gold; overall liquidity remains tight, with a defensive tone.
**BTC Update**: No clear trend—typical liquidity-driven range-bound action.
- Upper zone: 71.6k–73k (sell orders + liquidity chase zone)

- Middle zone: 70k–71k (rapid moves due to thin liquidity)
**Short-term Catalysts**:
- Hold above 71.6k → triggers liquidity sweeps toward 73k.
- Break below 68k (failed support) → focus shifts to downside liquidation.
Markets will keep oscillating between triggering liquidity at both ends until there’s a **uni

Calacanis founded Stillcore Capital, a fund focused on Bittensor ecosystem subnet projects, and has long been bullish on TAO.
On March 10th, Bittensor’s Templar (SN3) subnet completed the largest decentralized LLM (Covenant-72B) pretraining in history. Community backers argue this milestone proves Bittensor isn’t just a "concept coin"—it’s decentralized infrastructure capable of building top-tier AI models.
