building in consumer DeFi, core @synfuturesdefi and @futurehousekr

[Mark Lee @markjoonlee]

Last week, I hosted a small dinner with SEC Commissioner @HesterPeirce to candidly discuss the state of crypto and #DeFi within the current regulatory environment.

The takeaway? We shouldn't wait on regulators to drive the future of DeFi.

@Samwise_Ganji Fiat is a sham, the banking class is corrupt, decentralized digital currency and the blockchain are the inevitable future, and the incumbents will fight it to the death.

Future House는 RWA 교육 시리즈의 첫 번째 세션을 진행했으며 이번 세션에는 기존 Future House 교육 프로그램에 꾸준히 참여하던 참가자들뿐만 아니라, 빠르게 성장하고 있는 RWA 시장에 관심을 가지고 새롭게 유입된 참가자분들도 다수 참석했습니다.

세션 내용: 이번 세션은 참가자들이 RWA 시장에 대한 기초적인 이해를 갖출 수 있도록 다음과 같은 내용을 중심으로 진행되었습니다.

-RWA란 무엇이며 왜 주목받고 있는가
-RWA 시장의 주요 성장 요인과 트렌드
-글로벌 RWA 생태계의 최근 동향

또한 세션 중에는 Anchored Finance에 대한 소개도 진행했습니다. Anchored Finance가 RWA 시장에서 어떤 역할을 하고 있는지, 그리고 사람들이 실제 자산을 더 쉽고 안전하게 온체인에서 거래할 수 있도록 어떤 기반을 만들고 있는지 설명했습니다. @AnchoredFi

세션 중에 많은 질문과 의견이 오갔고, 참가자분들의 RWA에 대한 관심도도 매우 높게 느껴졌습니다. 다음 세션에서는 SynFutures 또는 Monday Trade를 활용한 RWA 거래 실습과 함께 Anchored Finance에 대해서도 조금 더 자세히 다룰 예정입니다!

퓨쳐하우스 × 현대백화점 문화센터

오늘 퓨쳐하우스가 현대백화점 문화센터에서 Web3 기초 강의를 진행했습니다.

현대백화점 문화센터는 최근 AI와 투자 등 교육 콘텐츠를 확대하고 있으며, 신퓨쳐스와 퓨쳐하우스는 이러한 흐름 속에서 Web3를 대중 교육과 연결하며 시장을 선점하고 있습니다.

🌙 강의 내용

이번 강의는 Web3와 블록체인을 처음 접하는 분들도 편하게 들을 수 있도록 진행됐습니다.

약 80분 동안 실제 서비스들은 어떻게 사용되고 있는지, 요즘 시장은 어떤 분위기로 흘러가고 있는지 등을 어렵지 않게 함께 이야기했습니다.

Future House는 앞으로도 더 많은 사람들이 Web3를 올바르게 이해하고, 스스로 판단할 수 있는 시각을 가질 수 있도록 다양한 교육과 콘텐츠를 이어나갈 예정입니다.

Future House × Hyundai Department Store Culture Center

Today, Future House hosted a beginner friendly Web3 lecture at Hyundai Department Store Culture Center.

Hyundai Department Store is one of the biggest department store brands in Korea, and it also operates cultural education centers that offer a wide range of public lectures and classes.
As Hyundai Culture Center continues expanding its programs into areas like AI and investing, SynFutures and Future House are helping introduce Web3 to a wider audience and leading this space early in Korea.

🌙 About the Lecture

The session was designed for people who are new to Web3 and blockchain, making the topics easy and comfortable to follow.

During the 80 minute lecture, we talked about how real services are being used today and what the overall market trend currently looks like in a simple way.

Future House will continue creating educational content and opportunities to help more people understand Web3 better and build their own perspective on the industry.

Korea is one of crypto’s most important markets but one of the hardest to reach.

the retail crowd that actually moves volume here, 40-65, isn’t on tg. they don’t follow crypto native KOLs. but they do trust institutions like Hyundai, so that’s where we’re taking our programming.

next week, real onchain markets taught inside Hyundai department store, with the curriculum built alongside @SynFuturesDefi

We’re finally at a point where we can confidently say tokenization is essential to building the next gen finance, without adding new risk metrics to the equation…… if the fundamental choices from day 1 are made right.

Getting those fundamentals right requires making the difficult decisions. Minting a token is the easiest part. Minting a token BEFORE the underlying asset settles is the shortcut to serve the ultimate ux because it "guarantees" price and atomic delivery on the surface.

But when a rwa token settles with zero slippage, is that real delivery?

At Anchored, our tokenized US stock is the proof of concept. We’ve proven we can build the product with regulator-tested structure and lowest latency solution possible. We’re incredibly excited for what we are shipping in Q2.

The firms also agreed to cooperate on building infrastructure for a won-denominated stablecoin ecosystem.
