  • Global regulation of digital currencies
  • Institutional leap on tokenised asset
  • Crypto meets AI
  • Evolution of decentralised finance (Custody, ETFs and Tokens)
The Digital Assets Forum 2025 convenes regulators, banks, asset managers, fintech builders and protocol founders at a pivotal inflection point. Global regulation of digital currencies is converging toward clearer frameworks, enabling cross‑border scale while tightening risk standards. Crypto meets AI as predictive analytics, autonomous compliance and intelligent risk engines reshape trading, settlement and custody operations. Meanwhile, decentralised finance evolves into an institutional stack, spanning regulated custody, spot and ETF rails, tokenised instruments and programmable liquidity, bridging TradFi discipline with Web3 speed.
