Frederik Gregaard, CEO of the Cardano Foundation, recently met with Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton. The discussion was about the institutional introduction of public blockchains. Gregaard announced that the meeting with managers from crypto industry took place and it was about “political work”.
Johnson said that Franklin Templeton supports the public blockchain infrastructure and confirmed that Cardano nodes were operated. The operation of a node means that you contribute to the safety of the network and are directly connected to the Cardano system. Gregaard said that you can exchange ideas about how to use blockchains for institutions.
Franklin Templeton manages $ 1.6 trillion and already put on a tokenized US money market fund in 2021. Since then, the company has invested in various defi projects and manages several crypto ETFs. However, a cardano ETF is not part of the offer. As CNF reported, Grayscale is waiting for the approval of the SEC for a Cardano ETF. However, Franklin Templeton has not applied.
Gregaard said the aim of the talks was to create regulatory framework for the institutional use of blockchains, with Cardano’s focus on decentralization, security and scalability.

The leadership of the foundation, including the Chief Legal Officer, will meet with regulatory officers to discuss risk framework and regulatory clarity. Gregaard said the platform was being developed to support established financial institutions. The system is built up in such a way that the institutions can use Cardano as a completely public blockchain.
This is in line with the initiative of the foundation to promote institutional acceptance. Gregaard said that any progress should not endanger the basic principles of blockchain. One will work for an environment in which the institutional commitment to blockchain can grow.
