A Future of Finance interview with Richard Brown, Chief Executive of R3 Labs
The pivot by R3 from private to public blockchains through its partnership with Solana might be one of those apparently arcane technical deals - like IBM and Microsoft or Apple and ARM - that changes everything. It allies regulated, institutional money with an open blockchain protocol that can compete with existing equity and debt marketplaces on volume, speed and price, while still delivering on the central promise of blockchain: elimination of high levels of financial intermediation. It could, by accelerating the tokenisation of traditional financial assets as well as traditional forms of money, achieve what Ethereum has so far failed to deliver. Future of Finance Co-founder Dominic Hobson asked Richard Brown, Chief Executive of R3 Labs, why the company has set such a radical new course.
