Broctagon was part of the prestigious Blockchain Life 2019 Asia event held in Singapore on April 23–24. The event brought together industry thought leaders and leading blockchain and crypto businesses to brainstorm on some of the key aspects impacting the industry.

Blockchain Life 2019 Asia had thoughtful sessions held by eminent crypto thought leaders such as Tim Draper and Roger Ver. Right from institutional investments to token sales to regulations, the event arrested the attention of the participants who had come from all corners of the globe.

Herbert R Sim, Head of Business Development at Broctagon, spoke about regulations in the cryptocurrency world. He reflected upon the current regulatory regimes and also succinctly highlighted the difference between the regulatory approaches taken by various countries in Asia, Europe and America.

The audience especially appreciated Herbert’s take on key trends that will make 2019 the defining year for cryptocurrency regulations. These include:

  • Merging of traditional finance with crypto finance
  • Security token offerings
  • Regulatory sandboxes
  • Crypto-specific regulatory frameworks instead of retrofitting old laws
  • Entry of giants like JP Morgan, Samsung and Facebook

He also underlined the role NEXUS — Broctagon’s premium crypto liquidity aggregator — is playing to bridge the gap between traditional finance and crypto finance. NEXUS recently added additional features which offer crypto exchanges, brokers and financial institutions more avenues to access 90% of global tradeable assets from one single account denominated in stablecoins, fiat and/or Bitcoin. End users can now easily create diverse portfolios along with settlements in stablecoins such as USDT.
