KEY TAKEAWAYS
Different tech stack, different threats — endpoint AV won’t protect a multi-sig.

Seconds matter — Hypernative flags 99 percent of attacks minutes ahead of the exploit.

Operational risk now outweighs code risk — cloud misconfigs and compromised laptops topple well-audited protocols.

Fraud is the next frontier — stable-coin issuers need proactive actor-classification, not just compliance blacklists.

Institutional bar is rising — real-time monitoring and automated policy enforcement are becoming investor requirements.

Institutional Crypto Strategy — Operational & Regulatory Roadmap with Alpha FMC

Traditional asset managers control the world’s largest pools of capital. How—and when—will they deploy it into digital assets? Phill Moran and Dalton Cole interview Christian Pellegrino, Director & Head of Digital Assets at Alpha FMC, to map the exact operational, regulatory, and economic triggers that move institutions from research to execution.

Marc Krisjanous, Associate Director of Audit at SixBlocks Audit, joins to talk about crypto security for institutions. Marc has a deep background in the world of traditional security audits and is one of the core developers of the CCSS audit, the only audit specifically built for the management of private keys in the context of cryptocurrency custody.

We discuss how the CCSS compares to traditional frameworks, like PCI DSS.

We spoke with Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines and Thibault de Lacheze-Murel at Dfns, a cryptocurrency custody technology provider, to hear their perspective on the recent Bybit hack and security related to crypto custody.

Building regulated custody in crypto is a challenging subject. International jurisdictions have their own unique approaches to qualifying a custody solution as "regulated", or "qualified".

After the meltdown of FTX and other entities, the crypto industry threw their hands up in the air and said "well I guess the bad guys have been washed out". But that just isn't the case. There are still bad actors lurking.

As the solution to this - Kevin Hoang is building EQ Exchange, a crypto exchange where all of the financials are made available to users in real time.

Aaron Kaplan is co-founder and CEO of Prometheum, a US regulated crypto Special Purpose Broker Dealer. Over a year ago, he spoke in front of Congress and this created a big uproar in the Crypto industry.

Today Aaron joins us to talk about the state of crypto regulations, what is unlocked because of regulations, their platform, and reflecting on the past year and a half since his Congressional testimony.
