Regulation Takes Center Stage in Onchain Finance

Linda Jeng, Chief Legal & Policy Officer at Aave Labs, has observed that regulation is becoming an essential aspect of onchain finance. With her extensive experience across various financial institutions and regulatory bodies, including the Federal Reserve, U.S. Treasury, SEC, OCC, Financial Stability Board, and the crypto industry, she now leads legal and regulatory strategy around DeFi, stablecoins, and tokenization at Aave Labs.

Jeng's background in policy-making has given her a unique perspective on the intersection of public blockchains and institutional finance. Her work at Aave Labs involves navigating the complex landscape of regulations to enable smooth integration with traditional financial systems.

As regulation becomes increasingly important, institutions are recognizing its value in mitigating risks associated with digital assets. Jeng's expertise will likely contribute significantly to shaping the future of onchain finance and its regulatory framework.
