What to Watch
Markets will be closely watching for any reversal in ETF outflow trends, particularly as year-end approaches and macro conditions evolve. The security of cross-chain bridges remains under scrutiny, with further incidents likely to drive protocol upgrades and insurance demand. Deutsche Bank’s custody launch in Germany could set a precedent for other major banks considering similar moves under MiCA, while Asia’s regulatory landscape will shape the next phase of institutional crypto adoption.
