Vinay Gupta commented; “As the journey begins towards integrating fully regulated financial instruments into the blockchain ecosystem, the depth of experience in the Upper Thames team will deliver a decisive advantage and the clear leadership required to shape the next phase of its evolution. The defi (“decentralized finance”) revolution has radically shifted the blockchain paradigm in the past year and paved the way for a much deeper integration into the real world, as can be evidenced by the recent news that Tesla have acquired US$1.5 billion of bitcoin. As the enormous success of recent blockchain stablecoin projects has demonstrated, the blockchain space needs the real world just as much as the real world needs the blockchain. Upper Thames is very well positioned to build vital infrastructure for the future of integrated global trade.”
