The Defiant - DeFi, Web3 & NFT Insights
Becoming the "Institutions Chain" with Avalanche’s Morgan Krupetsky
In this episode of The Defiant podcast we speak with Morgan Krupetsky, VP of OnChain Finance at Ava Labs, to break down one of the most significant shifts happening in ...crypto today: the rapid institutionalization of blockchain and Avalanche’s strategy to lead it.
Morgan walks us through Avalanche’s “real-world adoption first” ethos, explaining how its unique architecture enables enterprises, fintechs, banks, governments, and consumer apps to build purpose-designed blockchains while tapping into a shared liquidity hub.

18:50 — The explosion of tokenized money market funds, and how fintech partners in LatAm are already distributing them
23:10 — Tokenized equities via Denari, and what Nasdaq’s new guidance means for the space
26:40 — Private credit on-chain: how Avalanche is powering real loan facilities with programmatic capital
29:40 — AI x blockchain use cases, and how automated loan verification is already live
31:30 — How Avalanche BD works with partners (and why Ava Labs acts like an advisory firm for builders)
34:20 — The convergence of TradFi, DeFi, and Web2 — and why everything is becoming “on-chain finance”
