The rise of institutional onchain finance

🎙️ In this episode of the London Fintech Podcast, Tony Clark sits down with Sid Powell, CEO of Maple Finance, to explore the rapid rise of onchain finance and what it means for the future of institutional lending, asset management, and global financial markets. Sid explains how Maple is building institutional-grade borrowing and lending natively onchain, taking a different path from traditional finance players that rely on legacy rails. By using stablecoins, Bitcoin, and decentralized finance protocols, Maple is working to make lending faster, cheaper, more transparent, and more efficient—all while maintaining a rigorous focus on risk management. With over $4 billion in assets under management, Maple has emerged as a key player in crypto-native credit markets, partnering with institutions such as Cantor Fitzgerald, Bitwise, family offices, prime brokers, exchanges, trading firms, and Bitcoin miners. Sid outlines how BTC-backed loans, stablecoin-based lending, and DeFi integration are reshaping capital markets at scale. The conversation also dives into the regulatory outlook for the year ahead, including the implications of the GENIUS Act, the likely passage of the Clarity Act, and how improved regulation could unlock new use cases such as Bitcoin-backed mortgages. Sid shares his views on Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory, the current macro environment, and why stablecoin adoption is accelerating through banks, fintechs, and global payment providers. Tony and Sid also discuss Maple’s expansion across Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and other blockchains, the role of products like syrupUSDC in creating liquid, yield-bearing assets for DeFi, and how AI is increasingly being used to improve risk management in onchain asset management. 📌 Topics covered • The explosive growth of onchain finance • Institutional crypto lending vs traditional financial rails • Stablecoins, BTC-backed loans, and DeFi credit markets • Maple’s $4B+ AUM growth and institutional partnerships • Risk management in crypto-native lending • GENIUS Act, Clarity Act, and regulatory clarity • Cross-chain DeFi infrastructure (Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum) • Yield-bearing stablecoins and onchain composability • Bitcoin market outlook and macro trends • The future of AI in onchain asset management Whether you’re tracking institutional crypto adoption, stablecoin innovation, or the future of lending on blockchain rails, this episode offers a deep dive into where digital finance is heading next. 🔗Learn more: Tony Clark:   / tclark100   The London Fintech Podcast: https://londonfintechpodcast.com/ Sid Powell:   / sidneypowell   Maple Finance: https://maple.finance/ Go Beyond The Podcast: https://resources.nxwave.com/hub/lond...
