Jim Hiltner(@HiltnerJim):Unfortunately, the recent spate of hacks in crypto are making protocols, exchanges, vaults, etc. think more about the inherent protections that RWAs provide for onchain markets. I've been saying it for a while now and my conviction is stronger than ever - DeFi has an existential crisis on its hands which can be mitigated by integrating permissioned assets that have unique protections that bearer assets don't provide.
