Alan Campbell, Head of Product Management for Bloomberg's Multi-Asset Index business, says the DeFi market becomes the next big thing within crypto.

"As liquidity and institutional custody solutions continue to grow, DeFi has become an increasingly compelling option for institutional investors, and we will continue working with Galaxy to expand our crypto index offering," Campbell added.
