Crypto Adoption: Are Institutions Ready to Embrace It?

Institutional investors have traditionally kept their distance from crypto, but that’s apparently starting to change. On Enterprise Explores, we speak with Aaron Tang, APAC General Manager at Luno, to explore the drivers behind growing institutional interest and how Malaysia compares to regional markets in fostering adoption.

In this episode, we delve into the state of institutional crypto adoption in Malaysia, examining key drivers, the types of institutions embracing crypto, and the key challenges towards more widespread adoptions. We also discuss future trends—including crypto ETFs, CBDCs, and tokenisation—and the importance of robust governance and transparency in building investor confidence.
