Institutions are no longer just asking how to hold Bitcoin.
They’re asking:
→ How to borrow against it
→ How to move between BTC & stablecoins efficiently
→ How to do this within compliant infrastructure
@david_seroy explains this transition to @januszg_ at Bitcoin 2026.

UX is the bottleneck to financial markets on Bitcoin.
→ Custodial = easy, but high trust
→ Non-custodial = secure, but complex
Account abstraction, however, collapses this tradeoff • Chapter 6 of 7

Financial markets on Bitcoin need high-performance data infrastructure.
We’re bringing it to Alpen with @helloSQD: the onchain data layer.
Building Bitcoin’s financial system requires world-class data infrastructure.
That’s why we’re proud to partner with @AlpenLabs, bringing their chain to SQD’s Data Lake & indexing tools for builders.
Bitcoin’s financial system is coming online. 🏔
