The Future of Blockchain Infrastructure 🔮 @intangiblecoins sits down with Zane Glauber and Harry Austin from Galaxy’s Strategic Opportunities team to explore how staking, validator ops, and blockchain infrastructure are evolving to meet institutional needs.

“Gone are the yesteryears of enforcement actions.” Zane unpacks why the SEC’s updated guidance on staking-as-a-service marks a major shift for institutions and could accelerate capital deployment into staking.

“Solana is the Nasdaq of the future.” Harry explains why Solana is emerging as a key network for institutional infrastructure and how the Galaxy team is witnessing momentum shift in real-time.

“Sequencer revenue is a golden goose.” Zane explains the growing opportunity for infrastructure providers in the L2 space, especially around provers, sequencers, and how Galaxy is positioned to support the full stack.

"I think you're going to see a lot more major traditional names being a distribution channel for staking services." Harry outlines how traditional finance is progressing and how the composition of stakers and distribution channels may soon look very different.
