We’ve passed the tipping point to institutionalization – but not without pain. That was the core message from Sal Ternullo of A100x Ventures, the main keynote speaker at the Nordic Blockchain Conference in Stockholm.
Morten Myrstad from Kaupr took the opportunity to interview Ternullo during the conference, discussing the institutionalization of crypto, Bitcoin, stablecoins, and tokenization.
The conversation touched on regulatory barriers, key developments over the past 1.5 years, and how institutional adoption is now taking hold in various sectors. They also discussed the current state of play in Europe and the Nordics.
Timestamps to specific topics:
00:00 Key message
01:48 What has changed over the last 1.5 years?
03:15 Changes in perception outside the industry
04:15 The state of Europe vs. the US
05:25 Recommendations for investors
07:04 The buzz around Bitcoin Treasury Companies
09:10 Bitcoin Treasury companies in the Nordics
09:54 What will change in the coming months?
The interview was recorded on June 18, 2025 — the opening day of the Nordic Blockchain Conference — just one day after the US Senate supported a stablecoin bill on a bipartisan basis. The survey Ternullo refers to in the interview is the Crypto Adoption Survey in the Nordics.
