In this episode of Trends with Benefits, we’re a bit delayed getting this one out. We recorded back in late September and are just getting it out now. We’re back with another team member from Forgd. We had Shane Molidor, Founder of Forgd, on the show in June 2025, where we dove into some of the mechanics behind tokenization and tokenomics.
As tokenization continues to grow and develop mindshare in the zeitgeist so we decided to do a follow-up episode. This time, we invited Scott Byron, Head of Research at Forgd, to explore the evolving landscape of digital asset treasuries and their implications in the crypto market. Scott shares his journey into the crypto space, discusses the trends shaping the industry, and delves into the mechanics and future of digital asset treasuries.
“I do see a similar pattern to what you mentioned Adam where the pendulum is definitely swinging quite aggressively right now to tokenize everything. And I have no delusions that it’ll work with everything. I think that we have to go and try it and push the boundaries and see where it doesn’t work,” Byron says.
The conversation highlights the ongoing shift towards tokenization as institutional investors navigate the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets. Scott emphasizes the importance of understanding risks and the dynamics of NAV and MNAV in investment decisions, while also addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by the growing interest in digital assets.
