TREE NEWS reports: Canton CEO Yuval Rooz said blockchain must cement widespread adoption to withstand potential reversals in US policy, comparing the technology’s trajectory to Uber and Airbnb. Rooz argued that deep, everyday use — not regulatory favor — is what would insulate the industry from shifting political winds. He did not announce new products, partnerships or figures.
Canton CEO: Crypto Must Cement Adoption to Withstand US Policy Shifts
Rooz's framing is a notable shift from the industry's usual regulatory-arbitrage argument: durability comes from usage, not from who occupies the White House. The Uber and Airbnb comparison is doing real work here — both survived hostile incumbents and uneven rules by becoming embedded in daily behavior first. The obvious gap is that Rooz offers no evidence of where crypto currently sits on that adoption curve, and no specifics on how institutional blockchain platforms like Canton get there. Whether the sector's policy exposure actually shrinks as usage deepens remains the open question.
