A senior executive at Jupiter Exchange said decentralized finance needs much more than incremental upgrades if it is to bring in institutional money. According to Techub News, citing Crypto Briefing, the chief operating officer of the Solana-based decentralized exchange argued that DeFi must improve by 5x to 10x before it can genuinely attract real institutional capital. The executive’s point was that marginal adjustments are not enough. In his view, DeFi has to outperform traditional finance by a clear margin, rather than merely match it, if it is to change how financial systems and market access work. The comments frame the challenge for the sector in practical terms: stronger products and materially better performance are seen as necessary before larger pools of capital will engage at scale. The remarks were attributed to Jupiter Exchange’s COO, with no additional operational details disclosed in the brief report.
