BlockBeats News, February 3, Gnosis co-founder Friederike Ernst stated that as Wall Street and traditional financial institutions accelerate their entry into the crypto space, the industry is facing the risk of its core principles being diluted. She pointed out that the crypto industry was not originally intended to serve as a "back-end upgrade" for traditional finance, but rather to reshape money, platforms, and power structures, emphasizing personal sovereignty, collective ownership, and individual agency. Ernst recalled that when Gnosis was founded in 2015, crypto was still regarded as a "weird" fringe technology, and it was precisely this "weirdness" that drove reflection on the nature of the financial system and the distribution of power. But now, with Robinhood launching blockchain stocks, major US banks hiring stablecoin engineers, and politicians promoting the integration of traditional finance and crypto, crypto is gradually becoming mainstream. She believes that while the regulatory environment is improving and institutional capital is pouring in, entrepreneurs should be even more vigilant about value shifts, to avoid crypto becoming merely an auxiliary tool of the existing financial system and losing the original pursuit of autonomy and the spirit of decentralization.
