Tools needed to support enterprise-scale activity on networks like Solana are already in place: “Especially on networks like Solana and other fast networks, the infrastructure is there today for high amounts of institutional adoption.”While crypto community members may feel like institutional adoption should be bigger than it is, Federa said that these organizations are not quick at onboarding new technologies. “Institutions are coming on board, but they just move really slow,” Federa told Cointelegraph.“People expect these massive institutions to move fast, but that’s just not what they’re good at.” Until legal departments are fully satisfied with risk controls and compliance structures, Federa said meaningful adoption may unfold gradually.

While blockchain infrastructure may be ready for institutional use, many legal teams at large firms remain cautious about full integration with the technology. At the Token2049 event in Dubai, DoubleZero Labs founder and former Solana head of strategy Austin Federa told Cointelegraph that today's high-performance blockchains like Solana are technically capable of supporting large-scale institutional usage.
However, lawyers still need to catch up. “Most blockchains nowadays, especially things like Solana, are fast enough for institutions to use them,” Federa said.“It’s really more about the institutions and the institution’s lawyers getting comfortable with crypto.”Federa added that institutional lawyers and compliance teams are still addressing regulatory concerns.
