Growing Synergy Between TradFi And Crypto

“There’s a strong bridge forming between traditional investments and the crypto sector,” said Chen. “Investors demand flexibility, and products that span both realms are highly attractive.” While some see TradFi as a safety net, Bitget views it as a launchpad for mass adoption.

That synergy is exemplified by Kraken, which last week introduced access to 11,000 U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs — a bold move toward TradFi after the S&P 500 saw a $5 trillion drop over just two days in early April.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Now Bridging Into Traditional Markets

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, echoed this transition. On a recent earnings call, he emphasized their goal of “modernizing the global financial system” and “bringing more of the world’s GDP onto crypto rails.”

A Coinbase spokesperson added, “There’s an inherently symbiotic relationship between digital and traditional assets.” As regulatory clarity and institutional adoption grow, more global economic activity will flow into crypto.

While blockchain provides speed and transparency, TradFi offers trust, scale, and compliance. The convergence is inevitable and already well underway.

Even platforms like eToro and Robinhood now offer access to Bitcoin, ETH, and other digital assets, reflecting this paradigm shift in finance.

On Sunday, April 13, the OM token plunged over 90% from around $6.30 to below $0.50, sparking widespread market manipulation allegations among investors.

Low Liquidity and Suspicious Wallet Movements

Chen explained on Cointelegraph’s Chainreaction show that such crashes stem from high concentration of token holdings, opaque governance, and massive exchange inflows/outflows, especially during low-liquidity hours on weekends.

Data from Lookonchain shows that 17 wallets, including at least two connected to Mantra investor Laser Digital, transferred 43.6 million OM tokens (worth ~$227 million) to centralized exchanges just before the crash — fueling insider dumping suspicions.

Mantra CEO Responds

Mantra CEO John Mullin denied that the token sales came from the team, attributing the crash to forced liquidations on centralized exchanges, possibly OKX, but confirmed the team was still investigating the full details.

Chen added that the on-chain data provided “a very strong signal of insider dumping,” with millions of tokens sent to exchanges in a short time frame.

Even Bitcoin (BTC) has seen similar weekend-driven volatility, with a sharp drop under $75,000 on April 6, attributed to weekend de-risking activity amid global tensions.
