Caitlin Long warns that new institutions can bend during the next winter of cryptography


Institutional investors in the world of traditional finance do not have the updated risk tolerance models to face the crypto and can be confronted with trouble during the next bear market, according to the CEO of Custodia Caitlin Long.

“Big Finance is here in an important way, and it seems to be drive this cycle. I suspect that he will continue to drive this cycle ”, said Friday, CNBC at Wyoming Blockchain Symposium.

Long said that the inherited financial institutions are comfortable taking large quantities of leverage due to integrated failures in the system, such as windows at reduced prices and other “fault tolerances”.

However, she warned that these advantages disappear in the crypto, where the regulations occur in real time. The CEO said that the inadequacy between crypto and inheritance systems could create a liquidity crisis for these institutions:

“These types of defect tolerances are integrated into the system for inherited reasons, where systems did not update in real time. In crypto, everything must be in real time, and it’s just a different animal.

I am concerned about the way these Titans of finance react when the bear market inevitably returns. I know some who are optimistic and who think it will not come back. I have been there since 2012, so I know it comes back, ”she added.
