Adam explains that consolidation in Canadian cryptocurrency exchanges is expected due to declining trading volumes. They emphasize their focus on vertical integration rather than horizontal consolidation and mention their recent acquisition of an asset management company. The speaker believes that a balance is needed between having too many exchanges with low liquidity and having only one exchange. They discuss their strategy of expanding to specific jurisdictions like Australia, select states in the US, and Hong Kong to connect Western and Asian blockchain ecosystems. They express interest in cryptocurrency management and enabling production technology for security tokens. Despite regulatory scrutiny in the US, they believe that connecting Asian investors to a globally regulated platform can provide safety and trust. They anticipate Bitcoin's price to rise again, especially with the upcoming halving event in Spring 2024. Adam shares insights on the market and the future of Bitcoin, mentioning industry consensus that positive price movements may follow the halving event. He notes that historically, Bitcoin's price has reached its high point around one year after halving. He believes that the next cycle will depend on specific narratives and adoption rates. The development of the Bitcoin ecosystem is discussed, including projects like Bitcoin smart contracts, layer two solutions, and NFTs. While these developments are still in early stages, they have the potential to attract more value and assets to the blockchain. Adam expresses optimism about global adoption of Bitcoin, particularly in Latin America and developing nations, where he believes Bitcoin can serve as a national currency and revolutionize traditional banking systems.
