Guest host Chris Wiese, CFA, Managing Director of Education at
CFA Institute, speaks with Baxter Hines, CFA, Chief Investment
Officer at Honeycomb Digital Investments and author of Digital
Finance: Security Tokens and Unlocking the Real Potential of
Blockchain.
Hines shares how blockchain is reshaping finance—from
stablecoins and tokenized bonds to compliance automation and
cross-border payments. He explains why tokenization can lower
costs, increase efficiency, and improve transparency across
markets, and how regulatory clarity in Washington is accelerating
adoption.
The discussion also explores:
- Real-world use cases for tokenized securities
- The role of blockchain in reducing settlement times and costs
- How tokenization parallels ADRs in global investing
- The regulatory landscape for stablecoins and digital assets
- The investment case for Bitcoin and select cryptocurrencies
