Big move in the Solana ecosystem: Jupiter just brought on board KKR's former head of digital asset strategy as their new president. This marks another instance of traditional finance talent migrating into DeFi protocols. KKR, a heavyweight in global investment, has been eyeing blockchain opportunities for years. Now one of their digital asset strategists is steering a major DEX aggregator. Institutional expertise meeting decentralized infrastructure? That's the kind of crossover reshaping how protocols scale and legitimize themselves in the eyes of conventional markets.

Traditional finance giants are stepping in. Are they trying to make DeFi compliant this time?

KKR is sending people in so quickly; it seems traditional finance really can't sit still anymore.
