Jay Schulman, RSM principal and blockchain and digital assets leader, walks through the key considerations for a traditional financial services company looking to adopt digital assets. One crucial message? It takes time. When it comes to having a competitive advantage, companies interested in digital assets must realize it takes time to test, learn and understand how digital assets work.

The digital assets space looks vastly different today than it did just a few years ago. Digitally native companies that hold custody of digital assets or have platforms for the trading of such assets—whether cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and ethereum, non-fungible tokens, stablecoins, or security tokens—need to be able to adapt their vision and strategy as the landscape changes.
