Convergence in motion: Inside the institutional blockchain shift

The convergence between traditional finance and public blockchain is no longer theoretical. It's live, it's operational, and it's scaling. Oli Harris, Head of Kinexys, and Emma Landriault, Head of Labs from Kinexys by J.P. Morgan discuss what's driving institutional adoption today, why compliance, privacy, and finality are the design requirements that separate what works from what doesn't, how deposit tokens and stablecoins each serve distinct roles, and where the next wave of value creation is headed as friction continues to be removed across the value chain.
