Podcast Ep. 742 - Why Only a Few Crypto Assets Are Still Investable with FalconX
Which Crypto Assets Are Investable? | What Makes a Crypto Token Investable?In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Josh Lim, Global Co-Head of Markets at FalconX, joins from the Out East Summit to break down how crypto market structure is evolving as liquidity, institutions, and tokenization mature. He explains why crypto has shifted from a frontier asset class into a technology layer for payments, market infrastructure, and traditional finance rails.
The conversation covers the 10/10 liquidation event, thinning altcoin liquidity, what makes a token truly investable, Bitcoin’s role as collateral and a potential flight-to-safety asset, and why stablecoins, payments, speculation markets, and major L1s are where investors are focusing.
