As Keyrock sets its sights on long-term growth in the U.S., de Patoul believes the broader digital asset landscape will continue evolving rapidly. “In five years, growth is a certainty,” he said. “For a long time, people have been saying ‘institutions are coming’— but now, they’re here. It’s happening.” While traditional assets will still have a place, de Patoul foresees tremendous expansion in digital assets, with adoption becoming increasingly mainstream. “Right now, there’s a strong focus on emerging markets, but eventually, anyone interacting with FinTechs today will also be engaging with crypto,” he added.
