Episode Details
Back to EpisodesInstitutions Aren't Just Buying Bitcoin. They're Building the Layer Beneath It.
Description
Spot Bitcoin ETFs just posted their strongest month of 2026. But the more important signal isn't the price — it's where the infrastructure is being built. Real-world asset tokenization has tripled in 15 months to $19.3 billion, institutional wallets are being created specifically to hold on-chain assets, and the advised wealth channel is still below 0.5% allocated to crypto. This episode breaks down what institutional capital is actually positioning for, why most investors are watching the wrong layer, and what the value capture structure looks like from the inside.

Most crypto investors know what they own. Few know where they actually stand in the shift to on-chain finance.
