The Bank of Canada has officially recognized the technical and operational feasibility of DeFi lending protocols like Aave V3, provided proper governance is in place, Foresight News reported. In a new research paper, the central bank also identified structural characteristics of the sector, noting that profits are concentrated in a few tokens, recursive leverage is frequent despite over-collateralization, and liquidations occur in concentrated waves.

Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart has forecast that Bitcoin ETFs will eventually surpass gold ETFs in assets under management over the long term. According to Cointelegraph, the rationale is that Bitcoin offers multiple investment theses—including its roles as digital gold, a store of value, a portfolio diversifier, and a growth asset—while gold relies on a single narrative. In March, U.S. gold ETFs recorded net outflows of $2.92 billion, while spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $1.32 billion. Industry experts have also suggested that Bitcoin could outperform gold following a potential bull run for the precious metal in 2025.
