The boundary between traditional finance and decentralized finance is gradually disappearing. Institutional adoption, regulatory clarity in key markets, and the development of hybrid platforms are creating an environment where both worlds operate side by side with increasing overlap. Whether it's major financial institutions launching crypto trading desks or DeFi protocols integrating traditional asset classes, we're witnessing a fundamental shift. The days of strict separation are ending—what emerges will likely be a seamless ecosystem where both models coexist and complement each other.

Uh... if only I hadn't looked down on traditional finance back then, now the institutional big players are all rushing to grab the cake.

The integration of traditional finance and DeFi... honestly, it's just institutions wanting to get a piece of the pie.

nah, "seamless ecosystem" is just decentralization theater tbh. empirically speaking, we're just watching institutional capital slowly absorb defi primitives. where's the actual governance innovation here?

The integration of traditional finance and DeFi should have happened a long time ago, otherwise how can we play?

NGL, this integration trend has been obvious for a long time; institutional entry can't be stopped at all.

Traditional finance embraces the crypto world; it was long overdue. The era of centralized and decentralized forces competing together has truly arrived.
